WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Gap Chords – The Kooks | Version #3
First Tab, based on Noted's Tab. Definitely 100% correct. All goes out to the hard
scene, keep it fun guys.
This is exactly like the other Version, just for those of you who do not have a capo at
I personally think the other one is a little bit easier to play and sounds somewhat cleaner.
Recommended Chords:
Gm (3 5 5 3 3 3)
Cm7(3 3 5 3 4 3)
D (2 5 4 2 3 2)
D# (3 6 5 3 4 3) cleaner, and a lot easier to get to the D#

Bb (6 8 8 7 6 6)
