which has been around for like 3-4 years? Anyway, was playing the CD
on my long bus ride home when I suddenly felt that this's a god damm
nice song. When I reached home, I immediately look for the tab.
Although I found 1 but it was not correct. No ownership is found in
the tab but here is it, just in case you wanna compare -
C majorC - C majorC - 
A minorAm - Em.
So I spent around 2 hours tabbing this one out from scratch. Enjoy.
Rhythm chords are in this manner -
FF - FF - 
DmDm - C majorC
(Repeated through the whole song - Cranberries's trademark)
Verse:
FF FF DmDm C majorC
There was...............so lonely (Away)
FF FF DmDm C majorC
Remember................a Friday. (Away)
Intro/Verse:
FF FF DmDm C majorC
E-|--------1-----------1-----------1-----------0--------|
B-|------1---1-------1---1-------3---3-------1---1------|
G-|----2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---0-------0----|
D-|--3-----------3-----------0-----------2--------------|

This riff is played through the whole song expect the chorus.

The chorus is a bit tricky, you must listen to the song
carefully to get the timing. The rhythm chords is still
the same but the lead guitar is holding FF throughout.
It may sound difficult performing this part but basically
you strum the FF chord from your 
D MajorD to High-E before
plucking the "F" and "C" notes. Well, the chorus tab
might not be 100% correct but it is definitely close.
- CD Timing for the first chorus -
00:58 - Start of chorus
00:59 - Start of the FF strum
01:01 - Start of the FF strum
01:03 - Start of the FF strum
01:05 - Start of the FF strum
As you can see its at ABOUT a 2 sec interval.
You should get the rhythm by now, if you can't, listen
to this part a few times.

That's basically all to this song. Simple and nice.
Anyone care to tab out the bass?
