Evaline: A Protest in Lines Too Thin to Read
Amazing song, amazing band. I'm surprised there are no tabs on here whatsoever.
Also, ultimate-guitar ruins the spacing of the chords over the note sometimes, so 
sorry in advance.
Regardless, enjoy

Capo 4
D can also be played Dsus2. (I like the sound of it over just a normal D)
And if you want to play it without a capo, change the chords to go up 4 half-steps.

    We won't give up, we won't give up now.

repeat repeat repeat, etc.

Alternately, if you want to play the ending a bit differently play the above twice then...

When it reaches the climax:
D (xx0232@1)                               Em (022000@1)    GWe (320003@1)won't give up, we won't give up now.

Then for all times after:
Am (x02210@1)                              Em (022000@1)    GWe (320003@1)won't give up, we won't give up now.
(La da da)

And repeat until the end.

That's just about it.
