This is my first tab. I tabbed it off of the video: WATCH IT OR IT WONT SOUND RIGHT!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swpjbx6_otU&feature=related of Midway State's
acoustic performance. I saw there wasn't a tab on here that shows how they
actually play it. I'm not 100% sure if it's tuned a half step down, but it does
sound better and closer to the record imo. The F# i'm also not 100% but it looks
like and sounds like what the video shows.
Enjoy =)
BTW to those who don't know, your using power chords !
Tuning: HALF STEP DOWN ((eb, Bb, Gb, Db, Ab, E))
CAPO: NONE
NOTE: whoever rates the tab low, could you tell me why? It's near to exactly what
he's playing live...

E B F#
cause you show me that your not free, that you need big fat limousines,
A E B C#m

Chorus:
A E B F# A E B
What if i change for you, then will you see me, still with you.
F# A E F#
I 'd never do it; Immmmm no fool.
[REPEAT VERSE CHORDS]
C#m, A, E, B
So here we fall, and here we break
And all that we had, is now just a mistake.
You look so young, feel so misled
And your stuffy friends have gone to your head
[REPEAT REFRAIN CHORDS]
A, E, B, F#
You got your things, you got them all,
You know there's nothing you wont have,
and I'm afraid I don't got the cash,
to keep you happy, and I’m upset,
cause you show me that your not free, that you need big fat limousines,
to keep you high, to keep you safe, keep you in love.
[REPEAT CHORUS CHORDS]

What if i change for you, then will you see me, still with you.
I 'd never do it; I'm no fool.

Verse 3
[personally i STRUM ONCE PER CHORD TILL 'and the rain poured down...' otherwise
just slow down on the strumming]
A E B
I walk away, thinking back to the days, that I held you close
F# A E
with your puffy white coat, and you told me joe, I could never let go
B F# A
"I need you more, then life it's self", and the rain poured down
E B F#
and I kept you dry, and I took the tears fallen from your eyes,
A
and the snow came down
E B F#
and I kept you warm, and I kept you safe from your daddys storm,
A
when he said to you
E B F# A
that you cant see me, "all those poor boys got nothing good to be", now they got to you,
E B C#m
honey what do you say, you want some rich guy instead of me.
[REPEAT CHORUS X2]
A, E, B, F#
What if i change for you, then will you see me, still with you.
I 'd never do it; Im no fool.
A E F#
Honey Immmmmm not you.
