Never Gonna Fall In Love Again
by Snow Patrol (off the album "When it's all over we still have to clear up")
Tabbed by ear by Paul Lambeth.
This song's got a lot of fading in and out of different instruments, I'll do my best to
all of them correctly :). I love this song as I do most of the tracks on this album.
I've put each instrument in order of what point it comes in and fades out, I think it's
an easy way to do it.

PM PM
This is played 27 times per power chord I *think*, correct me if it's different, but
hard keeping count. There's a bit of distortion to this guitar too.
It finishes at [2:01] with the first chord let ring.

Lyrics:
(Haha, I love this bit, I don't think it's supposed be included but in the background
proclaims "I do remember where it is!")
Something snapped me out of a dream that I was having
I'd fallen down an elevator shaft but now I'm back again
Tidying
(Never gonna fall in love again)
Up after the fight we had
(Never gonna fall in love again)
Happy with yourself well you've never looked so satisfied
Teasing me with stuff like a spoiled little brother
You finished yet?
(Never gonna fall in love again)
Have you got what you really want?
(Never gonna fall in love again)
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
I'm never gonna fall in love again
