My first tab!!! Not sure what to call some of the chords, but they're listed below. I 
remember if there is a Capo or not, you'll have to play along with the song to be sure, 
I think it's just in standard. Enjoy my fellow Guster fans!!

Chords used:

A          (002220)
Dsus    (xx0230)

Intro: Picking pattern follows these chords:   A----Dsus----Dmin9

Then the intro riff is:

A----G.  to get the little bass riff, pull off then hammer on the low E and A strings 
on the G chord a couple of times.

Verse: palm muted

A-------------------G (with pull-offs)
Played follow the leader
A-------------------G (with pull-offs)
Keepin' my steps in time
A-------------------G (with pull-offs)
Counting on the wonder ahead
A-------------------G (with pull-offs)
I leave the pain behind

Pre-chorus: NOT palm muted
A---------G  (with pull-offs)
It?s on me
It?s all mine
Go away
They?re my mistakes
They?re not your problem

Verse: palm muted
A-------------------G (with pull-offs)
Pinned down in this heaven
I?ll die a thousand times
Aware of the damage ahead
I?ll leave the pain behind

Interlude:  A--------Dsus---------Dmin9  just like intro.

Chorus:
A
Another day
A
A perfect day

A twinge of pain

The sting of the needle

Interlude: A--------G (with pull-offs) for a few measures

So warm at the bottom
Warm never felt so kind
And for a moment or two
I leave it all behind

Go away, they're my mistakes and not your problem

Crack me up and stay on your own side

Another day

The sting of the needle

I wish I may

I wish I might

I pray my soul
Dmin9
to keep tonight

When all the walls
A
start staring back
Dsus
A perfect day
Dmin9
A sting for the last time
