This is my first tab. :D Occasionally,(listen to the song to know when) Drew does a hammer on on the A (5th) when playing C. Like this: ---0--------| ---1--------| ---2--------| ---0--------| ---0h3------| ---0--------| C And I sing songs about the past How I was raised and I was thrown out on my ass F C Cause I didn't care about going to school C And I saw the look in her eyes F My mother nearly cried when I had told her that I wanted to go C Just to prove them wrong C Am F I've been smoking cigarettes since I was only fourteen G Am F C Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me C And I sing songs about my friends F The way we grew up and all the loose ends we used to laugh C Cause we didn't give a damn C And I saw the look in my brother's eyes When I told him I was leaving F He could help but despise me C He wanted out his whole life C Am F I've been smoking the green since I was merely sixteen G Am F C Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me C And I sing songs about the past. ------8------7----------7--8--6--------------| ---------------------------------------------| ---5-----5-----------------------------------| -------------------5-------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| The next part is done on a 12-string, but will still sound okay on a 6-string.
