CATHOLIC COUNTRY - Kings Of Convenience
From the album "Peace Or Love", 2021.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Simon Bance, 9th July 2021.
Website: https://tabs.bancey.com
Tuning: Standard, Capo on 3rd fret.
Eirik plays these same few, typical fingerstyle "Bossa Nova" bars on loop throughout most of the song.
Play it with thumb and fingers 1, 2 and 3.
Pay attention to the muted notes "x" that the three fingers play on the down stroke.

There is only one part where the guitar part changes, in the bridge section approx 1m20s into the song.
Unfortunately in the album version it's very hard to hear what Eirik is playing, if anything, due to the other instruments.
I'm going to suggest the following for now, and if any live videos appear on YouTube from the upcoming tour I will revise it.

And that's all there really is to it! Good luck!
