Jump, Little Children is a highly underappreciated band and Cathedrals is an
incredible song. I found several tabs and chords for this song online, but
many of them didn't seem quite right, but this seems to match up well with
what they play on Magazine. Enjoy.
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Capo on 3rd fret.

Eb F/Eb Eb EbM7 F/Eb
Verse 1:

In the shadows of tall buildings

Of fallen angels on the ceilings

Oily feathers in bronze and concrete

Faded colors, pieces left incomplete

The line moves slowly past the electric fence

Across the borders, between continents
Chorus:

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome

There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime

Finding out just where that is
Eb F/Eb Eb EbM7 F/Eb
Verse 2:
=========
Eb F/Eb
In the shadows of tall buildings

The architecture is slowly peeling

Marble statues and glass dividers
Bb/D G7
Someone is watching, all of the outsiders
Cm A/F
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate

Past the mosaic of the head of state
< Play Chorus again >
Verse 3:

In the shadows of tall buildings
Bb/D Eb
Open arches endlessly kneeling

Sonic landscapes echoing vistas

Someone is listening from a safe distance

The line moves slowly into a fading light
Bb G7
A final moment in the dead of night
< Play Chorus one last time>

I have only briefly checked this tab, and I think it's right on the money. It sounds better capo'd at the 3rd fret and played this way, verses Version 3. V3 is also correct, with a few minor errors (see it's comments). But this version is great. My only advice for the tabber would have been to use the chord names as if the capo wasn't there, rather than transposing them in the technical sense. Otherwise, I think this one is the best. The song is one of my all time favorites from ANY band. I suggest checking out the original version because the strings really make the song come alive, and sets the perfect, somber mood.
