Thank You Guitar Tablature
Artist: The Calling
Album: Camino Palmero
Song: Thankyou
Tabbed partly by: Andy J Whiteway (andrewwhiteway@hotmail.com)

I've seen lots of chord versions of this tab which don't sound quite right.
Hope this clears everything up:

intro

e---6-----4----6-----
b---7-----4----6-----
g---6-----4----6-----
d---8-----6----8-----
a---6-----6----8-----
e---------4----6-----

chorus

e--------------------
b--4----6------9-----
g--4----6-----11-----
d--4----6-----11-----
a--2----4------9-----
e--------------------
(NB for the final chord you could also play 244322 F#)

basically it's the way the chords are played in this song which gives them the sound,
here are some examples to help you:


here's the first verse:

look around.........the writing's on the wall
e---------6--x--6-6-------------------4--x--4-4----
b---------7--x--7-7-------------------4--x--4-4----
g---------6--x--6-6-------------------4--x--4-4----
d---------8--x--8-8-------------------6--x--6-6----
a---------6--x--6-6-------------------6--x--6-6----
e-------------------------------------4--x--4-4----

don't you think we're all feeling crazed
e---------------6-x-6-6---------------6-x-------
b---------------6-x-6-6---------------7-x-7-6---
g---------------6-x-6-6---------------6-x-6-6---
d---------------8-x-8-8---------------8-x-8-8---
a---------------8-x-6-6---------------6-x-6-6---
e---------------6-x-6-6-------------------------

and a slight variation on this pattern comes just before the chorus:

well my god i should know you're right
e---------6-----------------------4------------
b---------7--7--------------------4--4---------
g---------6----6------------------4----4--------
d---------8------8----------------6------6-------
a---------6-----------------------6-------------
e---------------------------------4--------------

and i should know its right to say I thankyou for my days
e----------------------6-------------6--6---------
b----------------------6-------------7--7-6-------
g----------------------6--6----------6--6-6-------
d----------------------8----8--------8--8-8-------
a----------------------8------8------6--6-6-------
e----------------------6--------------------------

and the chorus:

Come.......around.....and see the other side

e----------------------------------------
b-4-4-4-4--6-6-6-6---9--9--9--9--9--9----
g-4-4-4-4--6-6-6-6--11-11-11-13-13-11----
d-4-4-4-4--6-6-6-6--11-11-11-11-11-11----
a-2-2-2-2--4-4-4-4---9--9--9--9--9--9----
e----------------------------------------

and for it all.......i Thankyou....I thankyou

e-------------------------6-6---6-6-6---6-6-x-----
b--4-4-4-4---6-6-6-6------7-7---7-7-7---7-7-x-----
g--4-4-4-4---6-6-6-6------6-6---6-6-6---6-6-x-----
d--4-4-4-4---6-6-6-6------8-8---8-8-8---8-8-x-----
a--2-2-2-2---4-4-4-4------6-6---6-6-6---6-6-x-----
e-------------------------------------------------

just repeat this pattern except on the final chorus

you'll make it.....on your own

e------------------------------
b------------------------------
g------------11-11--11-11------
d------------11-11--11-11------
a-------------9--9---9--8------
