I've never actually seen a completely correct tab for this song anywhere online, and I'm not
saying that mine is 100% correct, but it sounds right to me.  Email me with any corrections.

Standard tuning (that is, capo on second fret if you've been playing a lot of Elliott Smith)

Intro:

(This is basically just the chords from the piano part.  You can pretty much ignore the bass
notes of this intro if you want to.  How do you play E9/G# on guitar anyway??)

F (133211@1)      E (022100@1)      Am (x02210@1)You can figure out the riffs for yourself, they're not too hard.

CHORDS USED:

I wrote "Abaug" in the tab, but I just use am-maj7 on guitar because it's easier for me and
it still sounds right (to me at least).  Basically, it's just the chord you get when you flat
the root of an am.  Everything else should be pretty easy to figure out.

"Abaug [sic]"
