Title: An olive grove facing the sea. (acoustic version)
Tabbed by: Kaleb Sornac
(based upon a tab by Pat Higgins
(by way of cathal woods))
[You can find his version, well, everywhere... google it if you want it.]
This tab is for the acoustic live recording at SxSW (Radio One),

you can do a pullup on the 5th freth of the high E string
while in the intro, sounds good (and they do it on the acoustic

| I saw this played live (screeched along, too) and really, it's so beautiful Gary Lightbody's voice was almost shaking. Achingly angsty. | |

| This probably my favourite song of all time but i seem to have interpreted it differently to most people on her. I always thought it was about being on the edge of a relationship when the girl he is infatuated with is stringing him along a bit - "i am in such a mess i can't cope without this, she just teases me pretends she can't see me here" and he is unsure of how she'll react if he comes out and tells her his feelings "this could be heaven but i don't know where i am, i am too scared to come out from behind here" Anyway im probably wrong but u know..... | |

| this song is amazing.i owned the final straw cd before seeing them a couple months back but had never heard the earlier songs. this song blew me away and is definately my favorite by them. it's just so emotional and you can feel the meaning of it. mhm. classic. | |
