                             MAKING PLANS FOR NIGEL - XTC
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Tyler J
Email: full_metal_orange AT hotmail DOT com
 
Tuning: Standard
 
 
Artist: XTC
Album: Drums And Wires (1979)
 
This is a fantastic song by XTC from their 1979 album “Drums And Wires”. Just a note
I did not write this tab in essence but I fixed it up, added information on the chords that
not commonly known on guitar and fixed up the song form and placement of the chords.
I am told that the original tab for this was not written for guitar but for piano, so
explains the complicated chords.
 
Anyway, enjoy!
