Young The Giant - Take Me Home

tabbed by ann hogan

hello , all .

there were a few errors in the previous submission of this tab ( under the
band name “the jakes” ) , so i posted my corrected version of it .

in this song , some of the chords are the same , just with different
fingerings , so i marked the different ones with an asterisk ( * ) .
