"London" by PK from Into The Roaring (2010)
http://pkband.com/
PK is an awesome band with awesome songs. I figured out the chords to London so I
figured I'd share. It's pretty much what the rhythm guitar plays. If someone's figured out the
lead parts that would be awesome.
Tuning: The recording is half step down, but if you're just strumming these chords you
can get by with Drop D or even standard.
Chord names list the actual note played so I don't want any complaints :) (i.e. playing
an Eb would have the root at 6th fret on A in standard, but 7th fret in half step down)
Special notations: (frets are with half step down; adjust accordingly)
Eb: x799xx
Eb*: 022xxx
F: x911xxx

(use same chords/rhythm as the chorus, just quieter.)
Cuz it ain't ever felt like this I swear
I ain't fooling, yeah, you floored me
Oh I ain't ever had a kiss like yours
Cuz it ain't ever felt like this I swear
I ain't fooling, yeah, you floored me

Cuz it ain't ever felt like this I swear
I ain't fooling, yeah, you floored me
I ain't ever had a kiss like yours
I'm drunk still, I'm drunk still
