Biography:
Dustin Kensrue (born November 18, 1980) is the vocalist, lyricist, and rhythm guitarist in the Orange County post-hardcore quartet Thrice, as well as a solo artist.
Dustin also has a solo acoustic side project under his own name. He had toured in past years on his own under the moniker "Ursus Veritas," but decided to drop the name in favor of simplicity since "people have enough trouble just pronouncing [his] last name to begin with." The name was a play-on-words of its Latin components: Ursus meaning bear, and Veritas meaning truth.

Artist: Dustin Kensrue
Song: I Knew You Before
Album: Please Come Home
[note: this is written out for one guitar instead of a guitar and a bass, consult
the other versions if you do have a bass for parts of the verse, you can listen
for it, the chords here in the verse replace that.)
Verse:
(* means one beat per chord)
Em* D/F#* G* Am* C* C* C* C*
Pre-Chorus:
Am(4 measures) Em (x4) Am (x4) Em(x4)
Chorus:
G(x2) G7(x2) C(x2) Am(x2)
Em(2x) B7(x2) Em (4x)
[Verse 2x]
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
Bridge(x2):
Bm C D (half measure) Em (Half Measure)
Key Change:
Dm Am Dm D G
Final Chorus:
C C7 F Dm Am E Am
**It should be noted that on several Em chords throughout the song, Dustin Kensrue uses
hammeron that goes like this:
e--------------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------------|
G--------------------------------------------|
D---------------------0------2h--------------|
A------0-----2h------------------------------|
E--------------------------------------------|
3 + 4 +
The strum pattern goes something like this:
[A number(1,2,3, or 4) means a down stroke, and a plus sign means an upstroke,
also a dash indicates a "miss" or unstrummed arm swing. Basically, 1+2+3+4+ translates
one measure and is said aloud as "one and two and three and 4 and...",
while 1-2+3+4- would be said aloud as "one miss two and three and 4 miss..."]
1-2--+4+1-2
When using the hammer-on, it looks like this:
1-2--+4+1-2- 3+4+
The part on the far right, the 3+4+ is the hammer-on notes.
As you always should, listen to the song and compare with this, I'm certain this is accurate.
