------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bright Girl - The Skints ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LINK TO THE SKINTS: www.myspace.com/theskintsuk : http://www.rebelalliancerecordings.com/theskints.cfm Tabbed by: tizer4492 Email: ed_brooks1@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard Capo 1 This is a very simple and brilliant song by the punk/reggae/ska band The Skints. I worked this out entirely by ear, sounds near perfect to me. I play this with a capo on 1 although they play it completely open live. (Without the but the chords in the same positions i.e a semitone above the chord names listed here.) All chords relative to capo. I tried to write the scat parts out best I could its the chord sequence anyway so its not hard to get.
