Joel Plaskett - Wishful thinking

Friggin awesome track and although very simple there's just a lot of little changes and it's super long. There are a lot of little electric guitar accents, these are not included! This tab is mainly to breakdown the sections and provide complete lyrics so you can play and read at the same time. Includes repeated Chorus' as they change slightly, as well as where key changes happen and little in-between lyrics that aren't in others).
