Written by Paul Weller

This is the main lead part, The actual thing thing played is a mixture of the
chords and this, but this is for 2 quitarists although you could do it with just
one, but it won’t sound that good.

all the lines overlap at the moment, but copy and paste it onto word, put it at
courier new, size 10 and it'll be fine.

Chorus X2,(it’s easy enough to work out the cut off point if you know the song,
or listen to it.)

I don’t know the guitar for the instrumental bit played into fade, but just play
the intro over and over again, it fits.

This is my first tab, but awsome song, awsome band and awsome writer
