Postcards From Italy Tab por Beirut

# There are 2 halves to this song.

# 1st half

# F and A are repeated over and over, I recommend seeing the vidio for strumming pattern.It's pretty easy to pick up from there

# The hammers

# I will give the example on F

1| | |         1| |o|
2| | |         2| | | 
# 3|o| |   Then  3|o| | x4 } All of this x3
4| | |         4| | |

# Then add

1| | |o|    1| |o|    1| |    1| |o|
2| | | |    2| | |    2| |    2| | |
3|o| | |    3|o| |    3|o|    3|o| |
4| | | | ,  4| | | ,  4| | ,  4| | |

# You do the same for A  but move from the 3rd string to the 2nd to make an A shape

# 2nd Half

# the second half starts towards the end of the instrumental piece, between the 2nd and 3rd verses. the second half is a repeat of 4 chords

# Bbadd9 , F , Dm , C

# Again I recommend looking at the video for strumming patterns as they change a little throughout the later half of the song.
