This is a b side to Perfect Symmetry. I can't take credit for finding the chords 
to this song, but after searching for a tab for a long time, I saw the chords on a 
copy of sheet music a fan transcribed and had to share. I edited a little bit to 
make it sound a little more like the actual song. Let me know if there's anything really wrong.
