"Toy Store" by O.A.R.
tabbed by Dan Farrelly (dfarr@udel.edu)

I tabbed this from the live '34th & 8th' version of 'Toy Store.' It just happens to be 
fav version.
The intro is dead on for this version, I also like to play this using barre chords 
of open chords, I think it is played like that on the record.

chords:

    E   D   A   B   C#m
e|--7---5---5---7---4---|
B|--9---7---5---7---5---|
G|--9---7---6---8---6---|
D|--9---7---7---9---6---|
A|--7---5---7---9---4---|
E|----------5---7-------|

Intro:
(Note: I used the shape of an A string MINOR barre chord for the E here so then I can do 
slide up to the C#m a lot easier)
    E         C#m    A      B

Verse:
E D A B
E D A
-basic strumming of these chords throughout the verses, easy to pick up.

Chorus:
E C#m A B
-again not hard to pick up, just listen, the chords are played softer here.

Thats it, just listen it.  Any questions leave a comment or email me.
