This Is Yesterday tab by Manic Street Preachers

Tabs

This Is Yesterday
from The Holy Bible.


I visited this site and realised that the best song ever written was tabbed incorrectly, so, here is the proper, although not quite finished, version.


intro:-

Repeat verse and chorus parts, then it's the solo:-

E-|--------------------------------------------------------
B-|--------------------------------------------------------
G-|-4/16-16-16-16-16\14-14-14-14\12-12-12-12\11-11-11-11\9-

Then it's back to the chorus bit.

Ending:-
I'm not sure, play something in G.
