The Fratellis – Babydoll tab

Chords:
Transpose:
Yeah so.. All of seen of this song on here is inaccurate versions or people claiming you 
a capo.. Which you dont (:
So here's my accurate tab for the chords and one of the riffs.
I will attempt to transcribe all of the lead guitar at a later date

Standard tuning - EADGBe

Chords used - A, A/G#, F#m, Bm, E, 
C#7, D, B7

For those of you who do not know what i mean by a A/G#, it is purely your box standard A 
with a G# bass added. A nice touch when descending to an F#m.
The chord should therefore look like this E A D G B e
                                          4-0-3-3-3-0


A                  A/G#                    F#m

Bm                                        E            D E
And when morning comes the sun is gonna shine

A                     A/G#                   F#m

Bm                                                 E
Cause when morning comes god knows that you'll be mine

A           C#7            F#m        E           D
So let me in I'm ready to beg and to sing for my sins

F#m               E                       D
Not leave it to chance and sweet coincidence

F#m

Bm                                          E

And find my place there and there I'll stay

And it took me too long till I found out

    D                A                     D
Faces that you know the best oh well I guess

A            A/G#            F#m            C#7
And they laughed when you said you was leaving

    D                 A                       D
Everybody knows you well except for me can't you tell

A            A/G#              F#m              C#7
And you watched from the wings of the late show roses

D                     A                  D
By you're feet of red all for me you said

Babydoll...

From here on the opening sequence is repeated over & over to fade.
(A, A/G#, F#m, Bm, E)

Over this sequence there are two distinctive riffs.
The first of which is tabbed below:


e----------------------------------------------------------------------|B----------------------------------------------------------------------|G--2-----2h-4/-6\-4-2-1-----------2-----2h-4/-6\-4-2-1-----------------|D-----------------------4------------------------------4---------------|A----------------------------------------------------------------------|E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
e----------------------------------------------------------------------|B----------------------------------------------------------------------|G--2-----2h-4/-6\-2-1-----------1--------------------------------------|D---------------------2-------4----------------------------------------|A----------------------------------------------------------------------|E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
This is played twice and is then followed by a second, different riff which i have still transcribe. h = Hammer-on / = Slide up \ = Slide down Do not hesitate to e-mail me with any errors i have made or with any of this missing i have yet to transcribe.
