It's Nice to Know You Work Alone - Silversun Pickups
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Ahrum

This is probably my favorite Silversun Pickups song, for its gritty
grunge feel to it.
To get a good sound w/o pedals, I cut the tone to 0 on my guitar, use
the rhythm pickups, and turn the treble and middle values on my amp to
about 3 o'clock (12 o'clock being normal)... it's a pretty sick sound,
and I enjoy playing that way.
Feel free to e-mail me w/ comments.
Tuning: Drop D
UPDATE: (4/17) Updated the Chorus and a bit of the Solo, also the last
"main" riff, thanks to HappyGilmore899.
