Said the Whale is a Canadian band formed in 2007 as a collaboration between songwriters Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft. The pair’s debut EP, Taking Abalonia, featured sunny west coast indie pop, with breezy harmonies, shimmering guitars and lyrical tributes to their home city of Vancouver, “nodding at times to the sea shanties of Neutral Milk Hotel and at others to the boat-shoe-gazing of Vampire Weekend” said The National Post. In 2008, the album was re-released as Howe Sounds/Talking Abalonia

I finished this because our band is covering it, but there's a HUGE lack of Said the Whale tabs floating out there on the internet, keeping this in mind I don't mind if you use my tabs on one condition: give credit where credit is due. I worked hard on this tab, as does any other person out there on the web, and stealing our work is plagarism. If you see this exact tab on a site anywhere without my name (talflick) on it, please email me a link, because stealing is wrong and I'd just like to say that if you're taking my tab and putting your name on it, not only is it illegal but also, it shows a lot about yourself. People work really hard to try and get you accurate tabs and if you steal them, you're taking away everything they've worked for over something you copy and paste, and that, in my opinion, makes you a terrible person.
Anyway, after that horrible warning, enjoy the tab !
