"Thief"
Our Lady Peace

this is possibly my favorite song, and so thus, I just thought I'd write a cleaned up version of the tab that I had scribbled on some paper for myself...here it goes

If it is a power chord I'll list it as ?5...half step down
so the voicings are as if it were standard....easy enough? I think so

in example
if I say G
-3-
-3-
-0-
-0-
-2-
-3-

but G5 is

-5-
-5-
-3-

Picking part 1 (intro, verse)

Picking part 2 (intro, verse)
