Patience of Angels Boo Hewerdine
Exactly as he plays it in this awesome live performance from BBC 4's 'Songwriter's
Circle' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stjaM9MXQNY)
Standard tuning, capo 5th.
INTRO RIFF
The intro is a nice Am | G add4 | C | G add4 progression. He plays it with this little
fill in place of the last chord though:
So, start with:

If I [C]was, would I [D]find...
