Mogwai - Thank you space expert
Very easy and beatiful song. For better experience use electroguitar with light delay
and bright treble(high tones)without any distorting, sound must be absolutely clean! :)
Tab is ear-transcribed! (don't be very strict to me)

That's all, that I transcribed. All these phrases is repeating a lot in the song. Also
