words and music by derek webb
(transcribed by alex chen)
note: derek adds a lot of hammers all
over the place, and it would take forever
to label every single one, so just listen
the recording for that ...

Am(2,7): X02210 (with hammers)
D2: XX0230
D/F#: 200232
G: 320033
D: XX0232
C2: X32033 (with moving bass notes)
Fmaj7: 133210 or ,2 133200 (somewhat interchangeable)
Am: X02210
E7: 020100
-----

Am(2,7) - D2
D/F# - G
(play 4 times)
on the Am, hammer on the C (fret 1 B string)
and the A (fret 2 G string), then hammer off
the C (fret 1 B string) and switch to the D2.
also the strum changes slightly on the fourth
time, so listen to it.
-----
-----
D
C2(hammered/moving bass) - G
(play 16 times)
on the C2, hammer from B to C for the bass
(fret 2 to 3 on A string), then keep going
down in rhythm on the A string from fret 3
to 2 to 0 (open A string), then you switch
to the G chord and hit it twice in the strum.
again, listen to it ...
