Title: One Great City!
Artist: Weakerthans
Tab By: brian bboc - gnuix2004@yahoo.com

There is a capo on the 4th fret.

The f# (3 on the b string) sounds a bit different on the cd. I assume
he is plucking more than one string, might not even be an F#, closest
note I could find though. Only other thought is to also hold down 2 on the g string.
I am not a great plucker so thats as good
as it gets for me.

p - pull off
h - hammer on
/ - slide
? - tab probably not correct

late afternoon, another day is nearly done ...
a darker gray is breaking through a ligher one...
a thousand sharpened elbows in the underground ...
that hallow hurried sound (dont play last bit -goto next tab)

the driver checks the mirror seven minutes late
the crowded riders restlessness enunciates
the guess who suck the jets were lousy anyway
the same route every day

he's talking to himself.. and hears the price of gas repeat his
phrase.. I hate winnipeg

Intresting part - a little off but close enough.
