Papillon Acoustic Guitar Tabs by Editors

Based on the song played live at MTV Home on german television

IMPORTANT:
I tabbed it so you can get an idea of how it´s played not that you can adapt
this tab tone by tone. Try it several times and compare it to the original
version (e.g. on youtube), then you´ll get it. He plays some simple
variations, but not too different from the main theme.

Riff 1 (repeat each riff as often as needed)
Make our escape, you're my own papillon.
The world turns too fast, feel love before it's gone.

It kicks like a sleep twitch!
My papillon, feel love when it's shone.

It kicks like a sleep twitch!

Riff 2
Darling, just don't put down your guns yet,
if there really was a God here,
he'd have raised a hand by now.
Now darling, you'll both get old and die here,
well that's quite enough for me ,
we'll find our own way home somehow.

Riff 1
No sense of doubt, of what you can achieve.
Well I've found you out, I've seen the life you wish to lead.
And well it kicks like a sleep twitch!
You will choke, choke on the air you try to breathe.

It kicks like a sleep twitch!

Riff2
Darling, now just don't put down your guns yet,
if there really was a God here,
he'd have raised a hand by now.
Darling, you'll both get old and die here,
well that's quite enough for me dear,
we'll find our own home somehow.
