COUGH SYRUP - Young The Giant
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Ben
Email: bentappe@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
In the song there are 2 guitars, but I tabbed it for only one. and without using a capo
on the Second fret. It seems to work pretty well playing it his way with one guitar
I know this isn't a 100% correct tab. So I would appreciate any corrections to make it Perfect.
i did not tab the intro all credit goes to:

[Verse 2]
from 1:23 - 1:52 i like to repeat the intro finger-picking riff,
But in the Album version he plays chords, which don't technically start until the "these
zombies in the park" part.
chords used:
D G A
e|------|-----|-----|
B|--10--|--3--|--5--|
G|--11--|--4--|--6--|
D|--12--|--5--|--7--|
A|--12--|--5--|--7--|
E|--10--|--3--|--5--|
DLife's too short to even care at all Aoh
GI'm coming up now coming up now out of the Ablue oh
DThese zombies in the park they're looking for my heart
AWoah oh oh oh
GA dark world aches for a splash of the sun Aoh oh
"If I could find a way..." "I'd run away..."
