WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Stereophonics - Indian Summer Tabs | Ver. 1
The main part of this song is acoustic, but there are some lead guitar parts which I am
going to tab here for you.
/ = slide
//=slide and pick the note that you have slid to
Intro
Acoustic chords
A minor, Fmaj7, C major, G major
Lead guitar part- use a chorus effect if you have one and some distortion(sounds nice
with a slide/bottleneck but the other lead parts in the song do not require a slide so it
may be awkward for you to keep taking it on and off)
Let this note ring a bit\/

Verse 1
Am Fmaj7
Everytime that I see her
C G
A lightning bolt fills the room
Am Fmaj7
The underbelly of Paris
C G
She sings her favourite tune
Verse 2
Am Fmaj7
She'll drink you under the table
C G
She'll show you a trick or two
Am Fmaj7
And every that I left her
C G
I miss a thing she would do
Pre-chorus
Fmaj7 C
She was the one, for me
G Am
She opened my eyes, to see
Fmaj7 C
She was the one, for me
G
Oh alright
Lead part- clean tone

Chorus
For the lead part of this, you may want to either play the chords with a small bit of
distortion, or just arpeggiate the chords
Fmaj7 C
It was a cold September
Am G
Before the Indian Summer
Fmaj7 C
That's the thing I remember
Am G
When she gave me her number
Fmaj7 C
Went from station to station
Am G
On a train across the nation
Fmaj7 C
And the rain of November
Am G
That's the time that we ended
Bridge
The lead is the same as the pre-chorus
Fmaj7 C
She was the one, for me
Am G
Oh alright
Verse 3
The chords are the same as the other verses
Vodka with coca-cola
Cocaine tucked in her shoes
Cigarettes over coffee
Her halo slipped to a noose
I'm pretty sure that 3 guitars are playing this part, 1 guitar for the chord, 1 electric
with a clean tone and 1 electric with distorted sound, so just play whichever one you like
Clean lead
Play this through all of the chords

Distorted slide lead parts
These come in at various points throughout the verse, so just listen out for them, it's
not very hard to listen for them because they stand out with the distortion. Again use
the effects used for the intro.

Verse 4
Take the slow boat to China
You fly it right 'round the moon
She could take it or leave it
I knew it had to end soon
