Idlewild - You held the world in your arms

Title You Held The World in your arms Artist Idlewild Album The Remote Part Guitarists Rod Pryce-Jones, Allan Stewart When I see Idlewild play this song live, Rod Jones plays the melody over Allan Stewart playing the chords. Allan Stewart uses C# minor position at the 4th fret, E position at the 7th fret, B and A. These chords are below. For strumming patterns, you really need to listen to the CD. I am also working on an acoustic version of this song but dont hold your breath... Its not easy.

Bend the last note and try to get some feedback if you really want it to sound like the real thing. If youre not that bothered, then, it doesnt matter. The song sounds good played with the neck pickup and light distortion. This an amazing song by an amazing band, who dont get the recognition they deserve.
