This tab took me a while to do and I always wanted to learn Caleb’s riff but I couldn’t
find any that matched so I was like screw it I’m making my own. Also I think this tab
gives a little more detail on Matthew’s guitar part because all of the other tabs I’ve
seen weren’t tabbed correct and didn’t give enough info. I also saw the live versions and
this helped out on a few parts. I have to give credit to zero83 and antroolez for
helping me make this. Enjoy!

(0:17) Caleb does this little riff and I don’t really know how to play it but this is
the closest I’ve gotten
e|------0----0------------------0----0-----------| B|---------1----1------------------1----1----1---| G|--------------------2------2--------------2----| Don’t know how many D|---3-------------3------3----------------------| times it is played but A|-3---------------------------------------------| it is repeated a few times E|-----------------------------------------------| The feedback still continues until (0:28) and end like this e|--------------------------------| B|--------------------------------| G|--------------------------------| D|--10~-------10\-----------------| just slide back A|--------------------------------| E|--------------------------------|
Then there is a keyboard in the mix while Caleb’s singing
Then Mathew does this at (0:52) and Caleb starts his riff again
e|--------| B|--------| G|--9-----| D|----10--| A|--------| E|--------|

Then Jared’s bass part changes a bit throughout the song at (1:33)
G|-------------7---------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-3-3-3-3-3-5---5-------------------------------| E|------------------5-5----3-5-5-5-5-5-0-1-------|
Then Matthew comes in with a little solo at (1:54)
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------10-10-10-9-----------------------------9---------| D|---10-10-10-----------------------------12-12-12-10------10------| A|--------------------------------10-10-10-------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------------------| e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------10-10-10-9-------------------------9-------------| D|---10-10-10--------------------------12-12-12-10----10--10/12----| A|-----------------------------10-10-10----------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
The keyboard is played again during the verse, then chorus at (2:27), then the solo
again at (2:54)
You can barely hear it but Matthew plays it at (3:08) there is this
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------9------ a few times ----------9------------------------| D|------------10---- then this -------------10--10/12--------------| A|-----------------------------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
After that Matthew plays the solo again while Caleb plays his riff at (3:20)
e|-------------------------------| B|-------------------------------| G|------10-9--------------9------| x2 D|---10-----------12-10----10----| A|-------------10----------------| E|-------------------------------| Then this at (3:32) Matthew does this long solo e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------10-10-10-9-----------------------------9---------| x7 D|---10-10-10-----------------------------12-12-12-10------10------| A|--------------------------------10-10-10-------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Then the last one is the same thing but with the slide at the end at (4:19)
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------10-10-10-9-------------------------9-------------| D|---10-10-10--------------------------12-12-12-10----10--10/12----| A|-----------------------------10-10-10----------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Then the bass’s outro goes like this at (4:20)
G|-----------------------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-3-3-3-3-3-5-----------------------------------| E|----------------5-5----3-5-5-5-5-5-0-1---------| G|-------------7---------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-3-3-3-3-3-5---5-------------------------------| E|------------------5-5----3-5-5-5-5-5-0-1-------| G|-----------------------------------------------| D|--------------only play this last one twice----| A|-3-3-3-3-3-5-----------------------------------| E|----------------5-5----3-5-5-5-5-5-0-1-1-------| Then this one last time by Matthew at (4:27) e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------9------ a few times ----------9------------------------| D|------------10---- then this -------------10--10/12--------------| A|-----------------------------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
And it ends with Matthew doing a soft single strum that is
an Fmaj7/C
