Oasis - Half the World Away
This is an Oasis Classic and was a B side to Whatever. Noel writes B sides better
than most bands write A sides! This Tab is by no means exact, it's pretty accurate
but not exact, it sounds good with the song. The chords are correct for the strumming
part too, play it with a mate! It's pretty long but i've tabbed the song almost to
the end. I know everyone always says it but this time i'ts true - This is my first
tab! All comments welcome. Email me if you wish john_hambidge@yahoo.co.uk
