"Tender" Performed and Written by Blur
From the Album "13" Released March 15th, 1999
[Revised by on Sept. 21, 2000]
I'm not sure I have the same version as the other guy who first did wrote
this, as my version (Radio edit? Not sure, it's an MP3) doesn't have the
same return to the first verse as this one. But the chords are right now,
and I've got the bare basics of the solo that plays throughout the song.
It's enough to play along with the song at any rate. Enjoy!

P.S. This is a revision of the work started by the original author,
which must've been his own work, because sorry to say, lots of it was
wrong. :} (But thanks - all the lyrics were right, as were the chords
*placement*. All the corrected chords in this version are my very own
ears' and hands' creation.
