Tabbed by: crazynickman

Tuning: Standard 

Ok, this is my first tab so go easy.  It's a fun-sounding and easy song from a
great unknown band, so chances are no one sees this anyway.  I didn't tab the
slide part, still figuring that out.  Anyway, this is just the chords.  Listen to
the song.

Intro:

Hit a B, then hammer on and pull off the 7th and 8th frets on the G string.
For the beginning of the vocals (before the drums kick in), you can basically
just slide up and down from A to B and back, 
hitting each chord.  For the A-Bb-Bb-B part, it's the same.  
Listen to the record for timing and whatnot.

       B (x2444x@1)             A (x02220@1)      B (x2444x@1)         A (x02220@1)              B (x2444x@1)                
All my friends and my family are remarkable people, they are nothing like the 
A (x02220@1)         B (x2444x@1)      A-
creeps in this town.
Bb-Bb-B              A (x02220@1)              B (x2444x@1)        A (x02220@1)          BThere (x2444x@1)is time still ahead of me, the last among equals, I am keeping both my 
A (x02220@1)          B (x2444x@1)     A-Bb-Bb-B
ears to the ground.

The slide riff plays over this, but like I said, not yet tabbed.

D (xx0232@1)      A (x02220@1)            E (022100@1) Well I can but not to you.
D (xx0232@1)   A (x02220@1)        E (022100@1) Oh I'm getting better at the waiting game
D (xx0232@1)   A (x02220@1)           E (022100@1) And I don't wanna lose.

Comments-wise, be brutal but not too brutal.  This is a band that I just want to
see get more recognition, so there you go.
