What's up, their new single is ultimate. I've laid out this tab a little 
differently to make it easier to see what gets played at the same time.
Otherwise, just use common sense to see which riffs get repeated and when 
their played.I added a few times in there that look like "1:05" to, you guessed
it, tell you when their played! Enjoy

                ^ On the last couple of these play this ^
                  Bend the "7" slowly over multiple strums
                  to "8" for that cool sound. And repeat
                  the above riffs twice.

Guitar 2 - Comes in on the second time the above is played
           I'm not too sure about this part, I think what I put as sliding
           should really be a wah on some note, and the harmonics probably
           aren't right, (All I have is an acoustic) but it should give you
           the right ideas

Breakdown

          like a violin, or they're keyboard parts, but i'm sure 
          these are the notes)

Lyrics

Maybe we
Why don't we
Sit right here for half an hour
We'll speak of what a waste I am
And how we missed your beat again

I swear we need to find some comfort in this 
Run! 
Down!
Place!
To bridge the gap of this 
Conscious state that we live in
And I try!
I try!

How come you try
To place us all!
To fit the shape of
And I Pray for!
And I Tell You
You to move on! Move on!
But mostly what they show you
At this rate we can't keep up
Taking back all the things I've said!
Taking back all the things I've said!
But I sure can't just stand still
Keep me filled in I swear I'll go

We walk alone
We walk alone
We walk alone!
We walk alone!
We walk alone!
We walk alone!
Back!
Home!
Alone!
Back home!

You're almost gone and I'm okay
I still see your shadow
To give you time to be afraid
But never your face again
I remember! 
Your presence!

I hope to god you come down
I hope to god you feel this now
I hope to god you come down
I hope to ... God

I know there must be some way out of here!
And all of them will be waiting there!
