Knights In Shining Karma - XTC
	------------------------------

		From the album Apple Venus Volume 1

		Transcribed by Howard Wright

A lot of the main electric guitar part uses 3-note chords with the thumb playing
the bass note and two fingers filling out the top notes of the chord.

I've written out some of the basic chord shapes with more than 3 strings,
(e.g Fm = 13311x instead of 1xx11x) so they look a bit more familiar.
The tablature shows exactly which strings from each chord are played.

I've written out what I consider to be the essence of the picking pattern.
There are two electric guitars playing *almost* the same thing on the original, 
but there are a few places where the two guitars play slightly different 
notes/chords. In these places I've written out what I hear as the "main" part.  

I've also written out the "bendy acoustic guitar part" that is played during
the intro section.
