***This is the way they actually play it***

This is my first tab. I used the audio files they put up on soundcloud, as well as 
some of their live performances, and trust me I took my time.

Be sure to listen to the song to get the timing down.

This is a work in progress, I still have some more to do when I get more time so hang in there!

Hope you guys like it! And please rate!



This is Joe's (the singer) guitar part

Slap the strings where you see an "x"

Both E strings tuned down to D


(let it ring)
D |---------7x-------10-x---12x--12-------------------------------|
B |---------------------------------------------------------------|
F#|---------------------------------------------------------------| x4
D |---------------------------------------------------------------|
A |---------------------------------------------------------------|
D |---------3x--3-3/7-7-x--7-0x-7-0---0000------------------------|

Chorus: **IMPORTANT: he kind of bars this part so he will occasionally strum and hit the
D AND A string on the same fret(so for example 3 on D AND A but the A is very soft).
The times he does hit the A string it seems to be on accident so I won't make a point of 
when it happens in the recording, just do what he does and let it happen when it happens!

****I added the last slide, it's not how it actually is when Joe plays it I just 
like playing it to match the last note.
