Cathedrals Tab

by Jump Little Children


Who cares who made this. Give me credit or not, but I'm not the one who wrote the song 
it doesn't really matter. Credit goes to Jump Little Children, and this is what I think 
song is played like...and after hearing it, you might too.

Capo the 2nd fret.

For intents and purposes (I know these aren't the exact names of chords) we shall call 
chords simplistically short names:
C   x32000 (modify this as you play only hitting the open strings SOMETIMES)
C*  x34000 (this is the little jump in sound that occurs throughout the verse)
   320033
   020100
  002210
   000232


Verse:
                *
In the shadows of tall buildings

                *
Of fallen angels on the ceilings

                *
Oily feathers in bronze and concrete

             
Faded colors, pieces left incomplete

                     
The line moves slowly past the electric fence

                  
Across the borders between continents


Chorus/Refrain:
                   
In the cathedrals of New York and Rome

                  
There is a feeling that you should just go home

                                                         *
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

I hope you enjoy this. I think it's pretty accurate.
