Leaving Blues Tabs

(ver. 2)
Bombay Bicycle Club
Bombay Bicycle Club, "Leaving Blues"
Written by Bombay Bicycle Club


This is a beautiful song with some slightly tricky finger picking but once you get the hang of it
 you'll be addicted like me. With the picking your thumb should be covering the low E, A and D
strings with your index finger on the G, your middle on the B (and E if it feels more comfortable)
and I use my third finger for the high E.

Capo 4th fret in standard tuning

Underneath is a little change he does after the chorus on the second repeat, a 
little difference on
the G chord listen out for it, its a little triplet he does.
