It's a great album, seems to be concentrated quite a lot on the softer side from what I've heard of it though. Anyway, you're all gonna say, no this songs in drop C tuning or whatever, but my guitar was tuned to standard tuning so that's the way I've tabbed it out, cos most of it worked. If you want to be more accurate, the chorus part is played an octave lower so the drop tuning will help and it'll be like fret 1 and open for the two main chords. Well here's the tab anyway. |---7---7---6---6---6-------9-----9------9---11-9---7---7---6---6---6-------9-- |-9---9---9---9---9---9-9-9---9-9---9-9----9------9---9---9---9---9---9-9-9----

Harmonics are a little off due to the tuning. The rest of the song is basically above, I can't remember the order totally but I think it goes back into the chorus part and then the intro and that's it. any questions? andrewbiles@hotmail.com
