Brand New - Play Crack The Sky tab

Song: Play Crack the Sky
Artist: Brand New
Album: Deja Entendu
Tuning: Half Step Down(Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb)

Okay, I know there are like two perfect chord submissions for this, but I figured I'd 
a tab for it with all the timing, upstrokes/downstrokes, the little fills in between. 
all the little things you can't really get from a chord submission. Anyway, here you go.

Legend:
U - Upstroke
D - Downstroke
x - Mute note
~ - let ring

Usually, for the downstrokes you want to stress the top 3 strings(E, A, and D), and for 
upstrokes, you want to stress the bottom 3 strings(G, B, and E). Using this style, you 
get a sound very very close to the actual song.

And that is the whole thing, all the little fills, strumming patterns, timing and all 
chords. I am sure this is 100% correct. If you have any comments, suggestions, or hate
