Built To Spill
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             CAR - CORRECT – BUILT TO SPILL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: STANDARD

This is Car as is appears on There’s Nothing Wrong With Love and the Live album. 
Previous tabs seemed to be quite a bit off from what is actually played.

This is the main verse riff, played under the verse chords:

E|---------1-------3--1-3-|----------------1-------------|

e|------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------------|
D|---1h3p1—----1p0--------------------------------------|
A|-3------------------0-1-3-1-0-------------------------|
E|-----------1-----3-------------3-1--------------------|
The start of the second bar isn’t quite right, I can’t hear exactly what’s being played.
