Forum Thread: Tabs for Make Do & Mend- Shambles/Winter Wasteland?

Hello, i have been playing guitar for about two years now. I don't take any lessons and am basically self taught. I'm desperate to learn the acoustic version on "Make Do & Mend- Shambles/Winter Waste Land" I have looked every where for the tabs, but they are nowhere to be found. The acoustic version of this song is amazing and i'm in love with the lyrics, please please can you help?

So as a lot of people like this song and so do I, I watched their nervous energies video over and over to figure out the tabs for this amazing song.

In fact it's so easy to learn because they only use power chords and so even a beginner should try.

Well I think they play it in Standard Tuning.

Rest of the song is really simple. once you figured out the strumming pattern it's only. (Note These are only the chords used. It's not the pattern nor the right order)

e|----0----0----0----0------|
B|----0----0----0----0------|
G|----x----x----x----x------|
D|----5----4----7----9------|
A|----7----5----9---10------|
E|--------------------------|

I hope you can appreciate this as much as I did. Comment and rate please :)
