You have options... I prefer to play it with a capo on the 1st fret
 and in the key of A (which is how I have it tabbed), or you can play 
it with a capo on the 3rd fret in the key of G.  I'll put those chords 
at the bottom of the page.

Intro: D A E

Intro riff (violin, I think):

|-10-11-13-15---18-17-13-10-13-13--8--|
|-------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|

verse riff     a few times
|---------------|-----------------------------------|
|---------------|-----------11-10-------------------|
|-7----7-8-10-7-|--10/12-12-------8----8-8----------|
|---------------|-------------------10-----8--------|
|---------------|-----------------------------------|
|---------------|-----------------------------------|

	A (w/ riff)
Do you belong to a song?

							D
Does it drag you along by the tongue at the top of your lungs?

	A		      E
Are you drunk?  Have you been drinking?

	A
Do you below the overpass go

						    D
With a fifth in your fist reminiscing the kiss of a love

		 A		 E
that just didn't love as much as you did?


Chorus:

		      F#m E/G# A
But please don't give up, dear walls,

	      D E  F#m
don't let the ceiling fall

	 D	     A		 E
when you belong to a song, salty eyes...


You belong.


THIS LITTLE BRIDGE PART HERE ISN'T 100% ACCURATE, BUT YOU GET THE IDEA:

Guitar 1         (this chord isn't as hard as it looks)
|----------------10---------------------|
|-8-----10-------6----------------------|
|---8------10----7----------------------|
|-----8-------10-8----------------------|
|-6--------------8----------------------|
|-------8--------6----------------------|

Guitar 2
(keep in mind this is WITH the capo)
|-------------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------2--|
|----------------2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2---------2----|
|----------------2-3-2-2-3-3-2-3-2-2-3-3-2-3-2-2-3-2-2-4------|
|----------------0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0--------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse again...

Chorus again...

K ya'll... That's most of the song... Email me if I missed anything important

(besides the solo...I got bored...Sorry... The song is in Bb so the solo is probably
based on the minor (Gm) scale...

Oh yeah, if you play with a capo at the 3rd fret, these are the chords:

THIS TAB	CAPO 3
A		G

D		C

E		D

F#m		Em

E/G#		D/F#
