                             Finally Free - The Cribs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: the_watch_trick
Tuning: standard 

Attempted to tab this cos it's one of the best tracks on the record. I worked it out partially from
the only half-decent live video i could find and from ear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ2e--uC_Rk
Just a note, when i use the '~' symbol, i'm signifying to let the note ring rather than vibrato.

Verse 
Instead of playing the chords you can just play 8 and 6 on the G string if 
you want, I think it still sounds good.
