Lucky Smoke Rings
by Dan Andriano (of Alkaline Trio)

Not sure why this tab was rejected initially, it's the only tab for this song on the internet (so far) and I'm pretty sure it's perfect... I've included one 
chord chart for acoustic and one for electric (seeing as open chords tend to sound like mud on electric).  Use as you see fit.  Some of the lyrics may 
be a bit off.  You HAVE to listen to a recording to get the strumming down.  I didn't include palm muting in this version, seeing as you can play it 
muted or not depending on which you prefer (just listen to the recording for when to mute, or e-mail me) =P

G C B C
G C D

Verse:
              G       C
  First whole day and look at me

       B           C
  Well I'm a total wreck

          G          C
  Bundled up and overheated

      B                   C
  You turned me into this mess

G                C             B       C
  I haven't gone blind yet but I can't see

         G            C
  I just stare into myself now

B         C          D
  Look at stupid old me


                   G                     C
Spitting out lucky smoke ring 'round the moon

  G                      C                  D
Maybe you're coming home soon but you won't see me no

(Repeat Intro)

          G         C
  Now I'm terrified

      B                  C
  And I've got this sick feeling inside

  G                C                   B      C
  Perfect end to a perfectly sickening week

G              C         B       C
  With nothing above the horizon

     G          C                B       C
  To help me forget about what's below


      D                   G                     C
So I'm Spitting out lucky smoke ring 'round the moon

  G                      C                  D
Maybe you're coming home soon but you won't see me no
