Capo: 4

Ben Howard - The Fear Tuning: EADGBE CAPO 4 Lyrics and Chord Below -------------------------------- Riff 1 Played through the Verses - NOTE: G in the lyrics is the timing to switch to the second part of the riff - i.e. 3rd Fret on the E And the A signifies using the open A string for the first part of the riff. Its pretty quick and he mixes up the ending, the 0h2 is an educates guess but play around with it. Fingerpicking fun!
