MELODY CALLING by THE VACCINES
This is my first tab/chords, so I apologize for any inaccuracies.
This tab is based on this live recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uItX-l2AZGQ
I only recognized three chords in the performance. I suggest that you play around a bit if
you're playing solo, since the entire band is present in the video and the guitar on its
own may sound a bit flat.
The song has a pretty constant rhythm to it. Once you get the rhythm (I suggest listening to
the song/video while playing) it's pretty simple. Some of the Bm's in the verses can get a bit
tricky to play so you can try skipping those if they give you difficulty.
