Title: Waiting For The Rapture
Artist: Oasis
Album: Dig Out Your Soul
Notes: I based this tab on the alternate recording released on the bonus disc to Dig Out
Soul. It’s a much more acoustic style song. This tab can still be applied to the song
the regular release, as it’s just “open neck” translations of the power chords used in
album version.
Tempo: The tempo of this version is best described as a ticking clock. With the first
of the chord being played in a down-stroke (representing the tic) and the second part of
chord being played in an up-stroke (representing the tock). This style of play creates
very syncopated sound and feeling.
Hope this version proves better than the previous submissions

Verse 1:
I still don't know what I was waiting for
A big love to fall down from the sky
She took my hand and picked me up off the floor
She put an apple in my eye
Chorus:
I said I'm tired__________
Come get me off the merry-go-round
I'm wired__________________
Come feed me and then bring me down
Verse 2:
She come up to me, I can't remember what she said
Cause I was in a trance and I forgot it all
I bet you don't know about all that, Revolution in her head
Fjam7 Am
She make a lover seem so magical
Chorus:
She said I'm tired_________
Come get me off the merry-go-round
I'm wired
Well heaven must of sent you
To save me from the rapture... yeah, yeah, yeaaaaheeyy
