Athlete - Loose Change guitar tab
I'm not going to bother too much with the timing and strumming pattern because its much simpler to hear and repeat through a guitar. You might have trouble getting hold of this song as it was on a single "El Salvadore" so downloads may be difficult. You might still be able to get it from a local record shopa and Athlete really are a good band so it might be worth bying the album (this isn't on there) :-)

(use the same strumming pattern and chord shapes)
Wouldn't see you in a small cro-wd--
Don't know what it is that I've found--
You're bigger than- I ever am--
It's just funny how things- turn out--
(pattern 2)
Some say that you A-R-E --- a fu-ture bright--

(continue chord pattern for next 2 lines)
i-can-see for my-self --- that they- are right--
when-ever you play- those 45s something comes alive---
(back to pattern 1 for 8 lines)
Caught a shadow at your window-
I can't imagine you in stage clothes-
With fairy lights- and singing like-
The stars you seem to know
Can i listen in your bed-room?
See the pictures which enchant you?
In time alone, when you let go
It goes the way you choose-
(back to pattern 2 until end)
Some say that you are--
A future bright--
I can see for my-self that they are right--
When-ever you play those 45s something comes alive--
