ARTIST: THE VERVE SONG: THE ROLLING PEOPLE TABBED BY : DAVID G (leavemehigh_1@hotmail.com) To say that this song took a while to tab is an understatement! You are really gonna have to keep your ears open or even better shut off the lyrics on the record to see where some of the stuff i've got down here comes from. Nick McCabe is a genius and inspired me to pick up a guitar and i thought it was about time i looked more into his work and tabbed something, this is off the actual urban hymns recording so it isn't a live version although i have seen him play it, most of this is right, theres just little bits that i had to guess because of the layers of echo and other guitars in the way, i may do other songs if i ever recover from tabbing this one, though its unlikely! Keep the Verve spirit alive and keep tabbing these great songs!
