This song sounds good both picked and fingered. I play it picked with my tone around a 3 or 4. Anyway..heres the tab. *=listen to cd for how long to play, I'm too lazy to write numbers too many times h=hammer(If you don't know what that is you dont deserve to play Saves the Day) ^=let note ring with note you hit after it #=pause(silence) ~ = let note ring. Listen at just about where Chris is done saying "I'll carry this piece of you with me" for when drum and bass come in. Bass does this.

I like playing this part because the bass really sticks out. Make sure you listen to this CD at this part cuz it is really confusing just looking at it.
