Arctic Monkeys - The Afternoons Hat
Tabbed by: Aled Parry
Email: aparry491@btinternet.com
This is a B-Side from 'My Propeller' EP.
Tuning: Standard G

Please listen to the song for strum timing etc.
Personally the strumming is easy.
But singing at the same time is a challenge.
Alex Turner has really stepped up his skills in this track.

and Fviolently you swung, tchrough unfamgiliar tounge
