-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Artist: Death Cab for Cutie
Song: Steadier Footing
Tabbed By: Josh B

I'm just going to identify these chords by their bass notes.  It does NOT actually 
the chord being played (most of them are just minors).

     B (x2444x@1)  G# (xx1114@1)  E(1) Eb (x43121@3)  E(2) (024100@1)C# (x43121@1)  E(3)
E||----------------------------------------||
B||--4----------0----4-----5-----5-----8---||
G||----------------------------------------||
D||-------6----------1-----2---------------||
A||--2---------------------------4-----7---||
E||-------4-----0--------------------------||

[riff]
The riff is just 3 chords that you arpeggiate.
C#sus2 : x46644
Some kind of E : x7644x (barre 4, use your pinky for the 7)
Bsus2 : x24422

E||------------------------------------|
B||----------4--------4--------2-------|
G||------------6--------4--------4-----|
D||-------6---------6--------4---------|
A||---2/4---------7--------2-----------|
E||------------------------------------|

Note: when you play the riff at the end of the song, the first time he slides 4/7 when 
to the "E", the rest of the time there is no slide.
