LIFE FROM A WINDOW
(Paul Weller)

From the LP ' This Is The Modern World'

After every A - play Asus4, it looked too messy when I wrote it out, but if you listen
  to the record, you'll get the idea.

Chords used:

G:     320033
D:     xx0232
A:     x02220
Asus4: x02230
Dsus4: xx0233
Bm:    x24432
Em:    022000 (I'm not sure if this is the right chord in the middle 8)

n.c.
One, two, three, four
