First of all, the lyrics are TOTALLY wrong. I tried to use some resources on
the internet to make sense of Taylor's mumbling, but their's didn't sound correct,
and the changes I made make no logical sense. Perhaps someone will update it for me, but
you easily get the picture. The notation is such that the first letter is the chord,
followed by /Add-on note. It's not popular(I don't know all the
varient names), but it's simple. Next, because there's so much of these
add-on type notes in this song, the song can be played a little different,
and sound much the same. I tabbed this off of their live performance on
the Tonight Show, and they are playing two guitars differently(e.g. Taylor
stays in the 1-3 fret range while Issac is using bar chords, etc.)
The most interchangeable of the chords are the C and Cadd9 varients(also exchangeable
are the E7sus4 and Dsus4]. I did what I thought sounded best and tried to get
the sound of two guitars out of one, but you may find it easier substituting some.
I tabbed this prior to any CD release, so I have no idea if the CD will be different.
Hanson tabs are often lazily and incorrectly done, but I think this one is fairly detailed.
