Intro Tabbed by - Tom Walker  Verse by - Ron Prince

Tuning Open C - C G C G C E

Listen to the intro, there are parts that need a little palm muting and there
are some dead notes to hit as well as the notes in this tab. 
This is just a basic intro to get you started. After you can play this you'll
be able to get it sounding more like the CD version. 

Intro - 
palm mute a bit

VERSE

Tabbed by  - Ron Prince

if you got at 12 string like John you can rip off your high G string (look 
at the picture on the Pickapart EP).

John uses a glass slide on his little finger.

- indicates slide

This is the basic riff

E-7-7----10-10----5-5----7-7
C-7-7----10-10----5-5----7-7
G-7-7----10-10----5-5----7-7
C-7-7----10-10----5-5----7-7
G-7-7----10-10----5-5----7-7
C-7-7----10-10----5-5----7-7

There are little licks and stuff that he plays but I haven't had time to 
work 'em out.

The Don't want to be a thorn in your side bit is like

E-3-3-3----10-10-10----5-5-5-5-5-5
C-3-3-3----10-10-10----5-5-5-5-5-5
G-3-3-3----10-10-10----5-5-5-5-5-5
C-3-3-3----10-10-10----5-5-5-5-5-5
G-3-3-3----10-10-10----5-5-5-5-5-5
C-3-3-3----10-10-10----5-5-5-5-5-5

That's about all the different riff 'n stuff there is a huge ass solo but I 
don't have time to write it/work it out so just have some fun playing your 
own.
