DIGEST - Benjamin Taylor (Ben Taylor)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Rhyl
Tuning: Standard
| / slide up
| \ slide down
| h hammer-on
| p pull-off
This is not how Ben plays it, but I think I've got most of the main changes.I figured
this tab out after playing the chords along to the song and working out the various,
pull-offs and slides that link the chords. Sorry for not separating the bars out, but if
you listen to the track and read the tab simultaneously, you can (I hope) pretty much
get the
tempo. Call me lazy, but I didn't tab out all the lyrics, but i have put a guide to
where the lines should coincide with the chords. I hope they are clear!
The intro is finger picked and I tend to carry that into the verses, however just
strumming the chords to the right rhythm sounds fine and makes it easier to sing over! It's
also helpful that the intro is also exactly the same for the chorus.
I welcome ANY suggestions; this version absolutely works for me, but if this tab can
sound better PLEASE add your suggestions in the comments. I am a novice and this is only my
second tab. Thanks for checking it out.

Notes:
- TIP! In the intro, when you slide UP 1/3, you can simply move that whole first full C majorC
shape up 2 frets.
- Use the chords as a guide and find your own finger picking style. Mix up the strings a
bit, but bear in mind the next chord.
