Helicopter Ver 5 by Bloc Party
Bloc Party - Helicopter ver 5 guitar tab
Tuning:Standard
This is my first tab, and i did it becouse I was tired of mediocre tabs of this great song
and a great band as well
To get this i was helped by watching bloc party live videos, and some other tabs, but mostly by ear
Im 99% sure about this, it sounds pretty cool
Guitar 1 - Kele Okereke
Guitar 2 - Russell Lissack
Russell Lissack Plays mostly downstrokes and this is exactly the position on the freetboard were bloc party plays it
