Title: I Wish Artist: Graham Coxon Album: The Sky Is Too High (1998) tabbed by scef (email: funnell_teen_spirit@yahoo.com) note: wherevethere's a * over a bar, the time signiture changes from 4/4 to 2/4, or from 2/4 to 4/4, depending what the time signiture already was. use downstrokes throughout, except for the quick bits in the verses - for them use quick alternate strumming, keeping the downstrokes at the same tempo as before

repeat verse 3 more times, playing a 2nd 'part B'
after the 1st 'part B' each time (listen to the song
if that doesn't make sense)
eventually there's the first instrumental break, where
a distorted guitar comes in. the acoustic plays 'part
A' several times while the distorted guitar plays
around on an Emaj scale (I think) with loadsa
feedback. It's a tad hard to work out so, er, I
haven't, if someone could it would be helpful...
the rest of the song uses stuff that's already tabbed
above, short of the distorted interludes...enjoy
