------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Cammertime Email: cdeamel(at)gmail(dot)com This is a very rocky tune, moreso than a lot of other Sparklehorse songs. It does have a catchy hook to it that really made me want to learn it on my own. The way I play it sounds right. Turn up that drive and go to town! Vocals come in after the below is played four times.

That's it. At least, for that guitar part. There are lots of singular notes played on high E string that you can easily learn by ear.
