DEPECHE MODE - WHEN THE BODY SPEAKS 
 
This is one of my favourite songs... I searched for one tab for a long time, but I found they 
were all incorrect in many places:( and so I attempted to write this one, which is nearly 100% 
perfect, I can play it along with the song and it sounds really good! I'd like to thank the ones 
who tabbed this song before, cause they helped me in my own work, specially with the chorus 
chords that have been difficult to found:) I hope you'll like it!
