VERSE: On the album version, nothing can be heard while Ben is singing, but when they 
it live this is what they play: GUITAR 1

INTRO: This time, play only once with and do the lead part.

VERSE:
The same for GUITAR 1
This time for GUITAR 2's lead, play this:
|-----------|
|--9/10b10b-|
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-----------|

CHORUS: Same as 1st time.

BRIDGE: GUITAR 1
2X: This is really hard to tab...so if this doenst sound right at first, keep playing it 
it starts to sound like the song. I DO know for sure that chords are right, just not if 
are tabbed in the proper way.
