Tuning: Standard (     )

----

B is defo Bm. Sorry for the initial mistake.
However, I can't hear the extra G that sheenabon talks of.
I went on youtube and checked some live performances... and my
tab seems correct in this respect!

----

The timing of the chords is a little tricky to pick up on.
Use barre chords on the verse but ordinary chords sound fine on choruses/other bits. I'm 
100% on this tab, but I think correct.

Also, before a G, sometimes a D is played really quickly.
I've left this out, because it isn't totally necessary and you have to
listen kinda hard to notice, but add it in in your playing if you like.

Yes I know it was late
        
We were greeting the sun
      
Before long


       
And you live with someone
            
I live with somebody too
        
Leave it there


                 
For safe keeping
                                 
One of the west village in plains
That was the custom
         
Come dawn


 
 


      
On the walls of the day
       
In the shade of the sun
        
We wrote down


       
Another vision of us
            
We were the challengers of
     
The unknown


                  
"Be safe" you say
                                             
Whatever the mess you are, you're mine, okay
If that is the custom
         
I'm down


 
 


(just G and D throught this bit...)
Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na
Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na...


    
    


       
Until I see you around
         
Until we clear the accounts
        
Leave it there


     
Leave it to us
           
We are the challengers of
     
The unknown


                          
Oh-la, oh-la, oh-la, oh-la
                          
Oh-la, oh-la, oh-la, oh-la
