Ok here's my best attempt at this song. Its not perfect because Cody plays it
a little different every time, but this is pretty close.

For this song, when you strum, you can either play all the strings as tabbed,
or you can mute the high e string; you can even mute both the high e and b
strings if you like, it sounds fine. Keep your pinky and ring fingers on the
3rd fret of the high e and b strings respectively, only moving your index
and middle to play the entire song (except during bridge).


Chords:

G5/F(i think):        G           Csus2       D9(maybe?):
E|-3-|    E|-3-|      E|-3-|      E|-3-|      E|-3-|
B|-3-|    B|-3-|      B|-3-|      B|-3-|      B|-3-|
G|-0-| or G|-2-|      G|-0-|      G|-0-|      G|-0-|

E|-x-|    E|-x-|      E|-x-|      E|-x-|      E|-x-|

Example strum pattern (apply to all chords):
E|------3--------3---3---3---|
B|------3--------3---3---3---|
G|------0--------0---0---0---|

NOTE: in the intro and fill pairs of a chord are played by a quick down/up 
      strum, triplets of a chord are played up/down/up strum. (each bar does
      represent a measure, the spacing just got off)
