Rapture Tab

by Pedro The Lion


least.  I found a couple wrong versions that were mostly right but had chords in it that
obviously not even in the song, so go figure.  I figured out how to play it by listening 
to it and just going chord by chord, its easy.  All powerchords pretty much.

How I'll tab most of it is by showing the lyrics above the tab lines and showing you the
powerchord to change to at exactly which word or in between which words in the song.
would be easiest.  The strumming is very very simple, youll figure it out the first time 
playing along with the song.  Enjoy.  It may not be 100% right, but when I play it
this along with the song on my stereo, it sounds damn close, so it probably is.
