This is played pretty fast, it's an awesome song.  The bassline is
fun, kind of complicated, and I hope I do it justice.

Standard tuning. 

                                                                1._____
Intro/Verse 1                                                   |
|-------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------|*-------------------------------------035-55-555--030--*|
|--3/9---99/--|----3-33-333-320----------023-33-333-3------------------|
|-------------|*---------------3-33-333-3-----------------------------*|
In the first Verse, play the repeat twice, using the 1. notation the first
time through, and going right into the Pre Chorus the second time.

|----------------------------3-|
Listen to the song, I think I misjudged the number of notes on the series 
of 0s and 3s...  I'm not too terribly concerned about that.


Chorus 1        
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------0---------------------------------------|
|-----23-320---22-33-44---320--------23-320---00-22------230----|
|0--03------3----------------30-0--03------3--------33-0----30--|
This is a cool chorus. 
I'm just going to tab it straight through, no repeats.
This is because I want to reproduce the fills accurately.

|0--03------3------------------30--0--03------3--------------------|
Kind of a repeat of the high part twice, but with slightly different
fills in between.  Then halts and hits Verse 2.


Verse 2
|-------------------------------------------------|
|----------035-55-555-------------035-55-555--050-|
|-3-33-333-------------023-33-333-----------------|
|---------------------3---------------------------|
Verse 2 is a lot like verse 1, except there are two highs, a low,
and a high instead of high, low, high, low.

|---------------------------------035-55-555-|
|-3-33-333-320----------023-33-333-----------|
|-------------3-33-333-3---------------------|
Verse 2 finishes with a very quick run into the Pre Chorus.

                                1.______ 2.___________ 
Pre Chorus 2                    |        |

In this pre chorus, do the 1. on the first time through, and the
2. on the repeat. 


Chorus 2
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------0-020--------------------------------------|
|-----23-320---22-33-44------320--------23-320---00-22------230----|
|0--03------3-------------------30-0--03------3--------33-0----30--|
This chorus has pretty much the same structure with minor fill 
variations.

Bridge is pretty simple.  Notice the 0s in the D/A strings.

Play the measure marked with the repeat 2x.
To finish we're going into multiple choruses.

Let the last note ring.


Well, that's it.  I'm not going to give you some bull about "This is how 
I hear it.." or whatever.  If you know that he's doing something major 
that I'm not getting, *PLEASE* email me.  I'm not concerned about how I 
hear it, I'm concerned about how it *IS*


Hi Kristin.  The only reason this exists is because of you.  Thanks.
