Default Temporary (1-2 years) roof covering?

In the great scheme we are about to build a shed then take down a garage

go in the shed before we can take it down).

However the garage is roofed with these really nice tiles which match the
house and it would be good to re-use these on the shed roof.

However, we need to have both buildings up for a while so we can't use
the
tiles from the garage when we first build the shed.

Is there something cheap which would last a couple of years as a sloping
roof before replacement (or possibly even remaining as a layer under the
tiles)?


I'd use roofing felt. It's only a few pounds for a roll.


The same stuff as is used on sheds, with the little bits of gravel on one
side? I'd go for that.
