I first made this tab when the CD first came out.
I just now looked over it and realized how crappy it is.
This is how I play it now.  What really  helped me make it
is the video of Modest Mouse playing live on Carson Daily,
you can see a lot of what he does and it made it easier to
learn the song and make this tab.  This is all my work and 
if its wrong, you may email me and yell at me all you want,
but this is how I play it and this is how I believe it's right.

To improve this song a little bit, have a whammy bar to throw
in some whammies to make it colorful and I know he uses it on
the very last chord of the song.


I will gladly accept any comments.
