--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dublin - Prefab Sprout --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Half step down (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) Prefab Sprout Dublin (1985, released 1989) (McAloon) From: "Protest Songs" This beauty has interesting chords thus creating a special texture. It is mostly picked. It is not easy to find out what is played and even though I think I got close, there are parts where I'm not sure at all. Especially the section I tabbed out below doesn't not seem elegant enough to me. Suggestions for corrections are highly welcome! I don't really know the names of some of the chords. But I didn't want to just "number" them, so I tried to name them anyway. Whoever knows more, please comment! What does this tab sound like?
