A Half Built House tab by We Were Promised Jetpacks
Guitar Tab
Song: A Half Built House Artist: We Were Promised Jetpacks Album: These Four Walls Tuning: EADGBe I divided the song into two parts: "Intro" has the high downward riffs, and "Outro" has the strummed chords. Some of the transition A#6s in the outro change place in the actual song, and the fingering might be slightly different, but it sounds pretty close.
