Sink tab by Iwan Rheon
Guitar Tab
Hey everyone. I've been upset with the lack of Iwan on this website for too long and so I'm taking it upon myself to tab/"chordify" all his songs that I've worked out myself. So, here's Sink: I've put the lyrics/chords below the tabs for those wanting to keep it simple. U/D indicates an up or down strum respectively. T indicates a pluck with the thumb. Verses: e|--------|--------|--------|--------| B|--11--11|--11--11|--11--11|--11--11| G|--00--00|--00--00|--22--22|--00--00| D|----2---|-----0--|----2---|----0---| A|3-------|2-------|0-------|2-------| E|--------|--------|--------|--------| T DUT DU T DUT DU T DUT DU T DUT DU

The strumming in the last two bars isn't strict, but follows this basic pattern.
