This song sounds good both picked and fingered. I play it picked with my tone
around a 3 or 4. Anyway..heres the tab.

*=listen to cd for how long to play, I'm too lazy to write numbers too many times
h=hammer(If you don't know what that is you dont deserve to play Saves the Day)
^=let note ring with note you hit after it
#=pause(silence)
~ = let note ring.

Listen at just about where Chris is done saying "I'll
carry this piece of you with me" for when drum and bass come in.
Bass does this.
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------4-3----------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

This is the first verse.
G|----------------------------------------Vnot a hammer!-------------------|
D|-------------------------------------6-5---------------------------------|
A|--------4h3-4*-4h3----3h4-6*---------------------------------------------|
E|--1*---------------4*----------------------------------------------------|

G|---------6---------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--3*-3-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------4*-4h3----3h4-6*--4-3---------------------------------------|
E|--------------------4*---------------------------------------------------|

You come to this mellower part. I like playing this part
because the bass really sticks out. Make sure you listen
to this CD at this part cuz it is really confusing just looking at it.
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------3-44-33-11-22-----66-44-3-4-66-44-33-11----------------------------|
E|--1*----------------44---------------------------------------------------|

G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------3-44-33-11-22-----66-44-3-4-66-44-33-44----------------------------|
E|--1*----------------44---------------------------------------------------|

Which takes you to the second verse, alot like the first but longer
and different at the end.
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------6-5---------------------------------|
A|--------4h3-4*-4h3----3h4-6*---------------------------------------------|

D|--3*--3----------------------------55-66---8-----------------------------|
A|-------------4*-4h3----3h4-66--------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------4*---------------------------------------------------|

Then you break into the best part, the chorus.
This lines alot like the one in the mellower part
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------8^-------------|
A|-------------44-33-11-33-----66-44-33---6666^-666------------------------|

Verse 3, this is exactly like verse 2
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------6-5---------------------------------|

D|-----3-----3-------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------44-33-11-33----66-44-33---6~ --------------------------|
E|-11---11----------------------44-----------------------------------------|

The bass then plays this, listen closely for it
G|---------7-888888888 (count 1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4-1 for the 8)-----------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Outro part:
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------3*--------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------4*------6*----------------------------------------------------|
E|---4*-3*-----------------------------------------------------------------|

You play that 4 times, I get bored with this line so I throw in little things
to jazz it up alittle. This is what I play. It all 8th notes
G|-----------------------------------------------6----------------8--------|
D|-------------------------------------------------6---6-3-3-3-3----8------|
A|-------------3-4--------------6-4-3-4-4-4-4-4------------------6----6----|
E|-4-4-4-4-4-6-----3-3-3-3-3-----------------------------------------------|
That also you would just play four times, afte four times do this.

G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------3-4--------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---11--------------------------------------------------------------------|
