Paper Planes


As you must already know, this is a cover of the M.I.A. song "Paper Planes". I've just noticed that the other tabs for this amazing cover have had the chorus a bit off... After reviewing the best HD video available for the cover, I made some changes. You can look for yourself at this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsjgM0b385g ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro/Verse's will sound like this, quick/short strums. Verse 1: Guitar 1 (This is tremolo picked) e)--22-22-22-22-22-22-22--17-17-17-17--15-15-15-15b-15b-| B)------------------------------------------------------| G)------------------------------------------------------| D)------------------------------------------------------| A)------------------------------------------------------| E)------------------------------------------------------| Guitar 2 e)------------------------------------------------------| B)------------------------------------------------------| G)----7--7--7--7--7--7----------------------------------| D)----7--7--7--7--7--7-----7--7~----5--5--5--5--5--5----| A)----5--5--5--5--5--5-----7--7~----5--5--5--5--5--5----| E)-------------------------7--7~----5--5--5--5--5--5----| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chorus 1: Guitar 1 plays everything 2 does without the sliding.
