Here's the chords and solo part to the Bright Eyes song "A Few Minutes On Friday". This
99.9% accurate there may be some faults on the solo but they are barely noticable. I
the main chords are played on an acoustic and the solo is played on an electric with 
I was surprised that nobody had tabbed this song before because it is such a good
This is my first tab, so ratings would be nice :)
Please, if you are going to use this tab on another website, all i ask is you give me
credit. You can figure out the strumming patterns by listening to the song and playing
at the same time. Here it is:

                                 
 she kills, with foreign films, the emptiness of day to day
                    
 and i wait 'til the weekend comes
                                           
so i can clear this uselessness from my brain
                      
i count the days 'til she arrives
                                    
those precious minutes when she is mine
                                                            
as we walk from my front door to her car, we're so close and alone
                                     
but that will disappear in a room filled with the warmth
      
of others', of others' company
                               
theres just too much company
                         
 theres just too much company
                                                         
 so i hide my wounded pride and stare off into the other cars
                                  
if i could just speak the words to tell her exactly how i feel
                      
 count the ways that i might say it
                                   
but i know that none of them will work because
                    
she won't feel the same, we got this far
                                                            
but i can't go through with it because the truth would hurt too much

it hurts too much, this hurts too much

 she goes back to the west coast to drink in the sunshine
                                                          
 and i'll stay here in these dead plains and try to make a seed grow
                                                    
 and i would pray for rain if i thought that it would help
