I found the interview with Ben Bridwell above in Guitar World magazine which goes
into how he plays this song (and Funeral, just FYI, which I've tabbed out on this
site too). I know there are already a ton of versions of this song and they sound
great but I figured someone might be interested in exactly how he plays it and the
crazy tuning he uses. In the article, it mentions that he has the correct tuning
for this song and for Funeral tattooed on his arm, in case there's any doubt.
It's all played with significant delay so the fingerpicking is hard to pick out
but I've tabbed out the intro below. For the rest of it, strumming sounds okay or
you can try the picking pattern I've described below. Without the delay, fingerpicking
does sound a little sparse.
