Turin Brakes
Underdog (Save Me)
tabbed by Owen Smith
Here are my corrections to previous tab(s) for this song. The others are basically
but need a few tweaks.
Chords
Verse:
Bm-A-G-G
Chorus:
A-D-G-Ex3
A-A-G- D- E
Oh,oh,oh..
A couple of alternative voicings for the above chords to spice it up a bit
Bm 7x077x (thanks to Guitar_George for this one - sounds great!!)
D x54030 (basically an open C shifted up two frets - nice and jangly!)
This is the lead part over the verses:

After this he uses the A major (blues) scale to improvise to the end.
