------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACIFIER - Catfish and the Bottlemen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Tim Emmott (timemmott) E-mail: t.j.emmott@hotmail.co.uk this is the standout song from the new album 'The Balcony in my opinion, what a tune. I'm glad they're now getting the credit they deserve from the NME who previously slated them! Enjoy, and please let me know what you think, and if there could be any alterations. Cheers!
