Title: Funny Thing
Artist: Travis
For those that haven't heard this song, do!
This is a beautifully simple song that could be mistaken for a Radiohead =
song.
I'm not sure where it's from, I heard it on a CD from the front of a =
magazine.
Any corrections, comments or other tabs you have you think I'll like =
then
please email me at geoff@sound-lab.demon.co.uk
Anyway here is the basic chords, there is no need for tab. The =
instrumentals
just follow the melody with lots of harmonics, but I'll leave that for =
you to
experiment with.

I'm not putting rhythm, just the main placement of chords...

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official TRAVIS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
