I'm pretty sure either James or Chris mess around with arpeggios in the chords on this part of the verse, it's hard to transcribe exactly what they're doing, so mess around with it (same strumming pattern as the intro). Em C G D C e|-------0--x--3--2--x-| b|-------0--1--3--3--1-| g|-------0--0--0--2--0-| d|-------2--2--x--0--2-| a|-----5-2--3--2--0--3-| E|-5-7---x--x--3--x--x-| Play the chords twice Chorus: I've written down both the power chords and the 'regular' chords, personally the regular chords sound much nicer, but the power chords make for a bigger chorus. Personal preference I suppose. I've also written down what I think the strumming pattern is, although if it doesn't fit for you I'm sure you'll work it out your own way.

Em, Bm, C, D, C, G, D
I Emparked the car and made my way down Bmcloser to the sea, I inChaled the summer Gbreeze and I felt fCree, G D I foEmrgot how much I missed the way, the Bmsun lit up the east coast bays, And Cmade the north sea come aGlive, and at nDight we'd pass the lEmighthouse by, On the our wCay to drown ourGselves in illegal Dwine, And we'd sCtay awake til the mGorning cars went Dby, With Cnothing but a Gbus fare and a Dsmile, And I cEmouldn't hDelp but sCmile...
Solo (Play during the bridge): You'll probably struggle to hear all of this, but listen closely, I'm fairly sure it's 95% right, and when I play it, it sounds spot on. e|----------------------------------------------------------| b|----------------------------------------------------------| g|-/9v~-11-11-11b12d11--11-11-11b12d11-7h9p7-4h5p4--7-7/9v~-| d|----------------------------------------------------------| a|----------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------| -/9-7-9-9-7-9-9-7-9-7---9b11d9-7---9b11d9-7-| ---------------------9-----------9----------| --------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------| e|--------------------------------------------------------------------| b|--------------------------------------------------------------------| g|-----/9-7---------7h9~--/9-7-9-9-7-9-9-7-9-7----9b11d9-7---9b11d9-7-| d|-5-5------7h9-7-5----------------------------9-----------9----------| a|--------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------| -----------------------------------| -----------------------------------| ----/9-7---------------------------| 5-5------7h9-7s5h7v~-5-7-5-/10-9-7-| -----------------------------------| -----------------------------------| e|---------------------------------------------------------| b|---------------------------------------------------------| g|-----/9-9-9--------------------/9-9-9--------------/9-9-9| d|-5-5--------9-9b-7v~-5-7-5-5-5--------9-9 -7v~-5-5-------| a|---------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------| ------------------------------| ------------------------------| -9b-7v~-9h10p9-5h7p5-0h2v~-0~-| ------------------------------| ------------------------------| I'm fairly certain this is an accurate tab, any questions don't hesitate to ask at 'willgenius@live.co.uk'.
