This is a great emo song off 'Gravity'.
I think it oughta be their next single.

Key:

~~~ = Vibrato

b(no.) = Bend note to match pitch of (no.)
r = release bent note to original pitch
h = Hammer on
p = Pull off
x = Fret Hand mute

Guitar 2 (Dirty/distorted electric) plays the verse twice.


I'll update this tab for the rest of the song soon, cuz i'm not a good
lead guitar player, and this song has too many licks going in the background.
Also, there's a solo somewhere, so I'll need more time. But you can survive
with these parts for now!
