Title: Paper Thin Walls Artist: Modest Mouse Album: The Moon and Antarctica Tuning: Standard eBGDAE Tabbed By: Stephen 'Spiv' Perreira IV Email: degaspiv01@msn.com Note: If you're familiar with my tabs, you know that I'm not the best on tabbing out proper strumming. So if my timings off, just go by the chords listed. You can probably get it in no time. The intro/verse can be played picking if you're going by the album. But Isaac strums it when he plays it in Concert. He does this cause it's much easier to strum the chord and sing than to pick the tune and sing. If you rate this low, please leave me a comment saying why you did it, cause I'll be glad to hear some feedback that will help me fix this tab for the rest of you to enjoy. If you don't like it but don't want to leave a comment, just move on with your life please.

I don't even play the 7 on G actually, just the 5 on A, 7 on D, and the 7 on G. Do what sounds best for you. This is the intro and verse because Isaac plays this under the lyrics for all the verses. The Chorus and Bridge don't follow this pattern. e-------| B--5~---| G--6~---| D--7~---| A-------| E-------| Only hit this chord AFTER all the verses are finished.
