Tuning: EADGBE (Standard) This tab is based off of the original Band recording of this song, not the By Your Side b-side. The only real difference between the two in terms of the chords is that the "A game nobody won" and "A song already sung" lyrics have B and E chords played over them on the Band version and A and D on the By Your Side b-side. The choruses to the Band version loosely follow the intro in terms of the picking pattern, and while there's just a little more going on during the choruses it's not significant enough to warrant re-tabbing the choruses note for note. The By Your Side b-side, on the other hand, is all over the place in terms of the picking in both the intro, choruses, and even verses, so the chords will have to suffice. Notable chords: D5 D5 G(1) G5 (2 fr.)
