British Sea Power - Remember Me From The Decline of British Sea Power Tabbed by Tombe (jamesbandenburg@hotmail.com) This tab is for what Yan plays on rhythm guitar throughout - I don't know Noble's lead guitar parts yet but I'm working on it. About the rhythms: For the actual tabbed out bits, I've tried to place the notes relative to each other to give you some idea of the rhythm. The rhythms are much easier to distnguish live than on the studio version. Regular tuning, with distortion or overdrive.
