Know Your Quarry - Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
Tabbed by Jack Cookson (Torn Asunder)
CAPO 4th FRET
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check out my profile for an MP3 of me playing this, but please note in the
recording I'm playing it with a capo on the 3rd fret to make it easier for me
to sing it. Having a capo on the 4th fret would be the way that Simon Neil
plays it.
