Ash é uma banda originária de Downpatrick, Irlanda do Norte em 1992. Sua música costumava ser classificada como britpop, devido ao fato da banda ter se tornado popular na mesma época em que o termo se espalhou pela grande mídia. O estilo musical da banda apresenta influências também do punk rock, do grunge e do hard rock.
Os integrantes originais da banda são Tim Wheeler, Mark Hamilton e Rick McMurray. Aos três se juntou Charlotte Hatherley, que começou uma carreira solo como um projeto paralelo em 2005.

Song: Innocent Smile Band: Ash Album: 1977 (released in 1996) Written by Mark Hamilton Transcribed by Luke Knox ([email protected])
This is a truly great song, and the only one on the album written by Ash's great bass player, Mark Hamilton. It's a cool song to play, and not too hard, either.
Bridge: (1:33 into the song) E-------------------------- B-------------------------- G---------7-----5---------- D---5-----7-----5-----2---- A---5-----5-----3-----2---- E---3-----------------0---- G5D5C5E5
Then play E5 - C5 during the "hanging from the sky" part.
This riff is played at the end of the E5-C5 progression: E-12-12-12-12-- B-------------- G--------------
Then there's this octave solo: E-------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------- G-------------------------------------------------- D-2-2-2-0-2---3-3-3--[Repeat, then:]--------------- A-------------------------------------12s11-///-0-- E-0-0-0-0-0---1-1-1--------------------------------
This is played 2x: E--9-9-9-9--11-11-11-11- B----------------------- G-----------------------
Then: E-12-12-12-12--14-14-14-14-16-16-16-9-9-9-9- B------------------------------------------- G------------------------------------------- Repeat this, and go to the 17th fret the second time.
The next part of the song is just C#5 - F#5, then it goes to E5 - F#5 at the end when the 1st verse is repeated.
Lyrics: (my version! These are not easy to decipher) [Verse] She comes out of town as the sun comes down, Fly with your friends with the stars alive. (2x) Running on a high from the spirit inside, Taking on the world with an innocent smile. (2x) [Chorus] Something knocked me down and I fell right to the ground. I lost it all in one life, just wandering around. [Verse] Vandalism's fun when there's nothing to do, Breaking through a wall, say it wasn't you. (2x) Big daddy rocket take you for a ride, shining to a rocket headed for the sky.(2x) [Chorus] [Bridge] That's when I got this shield up, re-awoke my mind. Swinging from a chandelier, hanging from the sky. You turned me all around, only took your smile, Swinging from a chandelier, hanging from the sky. Hanging from the sky. [End] Running on a high with the spirit inside, taking on the world with an innocent smile. (4x)
That's it! I know it's probably not perfect, but let me know if you have any changes, comments, suggestions, etc. I hope you enjoy the tab, and I could use some help with these lyrics!
