Listen to song to piece it together & for exact rhythm.
The first time I sent this in I was WAY off.. assuring, isn't it?

Normal tuning.

Intro: touch your jack with this rythm(/), then plug it(+):

       / // / +

Verse:
E                                                G
Visiting is pretty, visiting is good, seems that all they ever
A             E          A
wanted was a brother

Chorus:

  Gtr 1
  F#        A               E          F#    A         E
  This is a call to all my  past resignation This is a call

Gtr 2
e-----0-----------0--------------0-------0-------0-------
B---0---0------0-----0---------0---0---0---0---0---0-----
G-4---------3---------------2---------3------4-----------
D--------------------------------------------------------

If available, have a second guitarist, itll sound better.

the second part goes like this:

I don't know if it's exacltly as they recorded it, but it sounds

2nd chorus and outro.
