If you are not familiar with Dave Knudson's guitar playing style of tapping everything,
will be now. All taps are appropriately labeled with an 'h' before the note, so you know
tap it rather than finger-pick it. You can figure out how to play this how you want. I
my index finger on my right hand and the index, ring and pinky fingers to play with my
hand.
AThe two parts listed as "Jake Snider" are parts played by the lead singer because Dave
to use some effect that I cannot discern without actually having it to mess around and
to get the sound right. If i ever get that sound I will try my best to tab Dave's parts
Bridge 1 and the end of the song.
If you doubt this tab, the easiest way to figure it out for yourself is shifting the
on your media player left or right, as the guitar parts are isolated on either speaker.
This song is a lot of fun to play, thanks for checking out my tab!

Unfortunately, Dave's guitar here is undecipherable without a live video,
Or playing around with the effect he uses, which I do not have.
