HI...I've seen a lot of tabs where this song has been tabbed WRONG...! So I decided to make my own FIRST tab...and here it is...I've noticed that a lot of the currently uploaded tabs of this song on MXTabs are wrong too...(some of them not much though)...which I hope this tab corrects...
Hope u like it, 'coz it's my first tab...;-)

DROP GUITAR DOWN HALF-STEP
THIS SONG HAS BEEN TABBED USING BOTH THE ORIGINAL SONG PLUS BY WATCHING THEIR (LIFEHOUSE') LIVECONCERT AT LENO...SOOOO, THIS MAY RESULT IN THE TAB SOME PLACES IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN THE SONG....;-)
NOTE: The notes surrounded by two () is "optional" which means that if you play the intro with a plectrum then you can't play both tones simultanously...(I think the official recording is without a plectrum in the intro...)...;-)
