My tab for Stornoway's Knock Me On The Head from their new album Tales From Terra-Firma. I think it's pretty accurate, only did it by ear. The E's in verses are played at the 7th fret, except for ones before the A7 which are played non-bar version. Any requests/suggestions/comment post below or email debeaumont.louis@googlemail.com Chords in brackets means they're not played but that's what fits. Tuning: D# G# C# F# A# D# (half step down from standard) Intro: E G#m E G#m B Dm D#m
