I have yet to see this tabbed correctly, so here is my
version. I believe this is pretty much 100%.

Tabbed by: Guitarist426 - Brent

There are way too many wrong tabs of this song on the net, and that’s not to say this
tab is 100% correct… but it’s a hell of a lot closer than any others! Email me at
Guitarplyr426ap@cs.com for comments or corrections.

Standard Tuning – EBGDAE
For correct timing just listen to the song. I did this tab in Microsoft Word so I
sure hope it doesn’t come out fucked up, but you never know.

Finish the song out by playing:

[Riff 1]
[Verse] adding an “A” chord when he pauses to say “good-bye” (just listen you’ll see what I mean)
[Chorus]
[Riff 1] once

That’s about it I guess….email me if you have questions or comments. The chords are
tough at first. I don’t think I have forgotten anything…but if I did then you should
be able to figure it out with this.

Interstate Love Song

tabbed by Dr. Linus Rebar

There are a lot of tabs for this song on the internet
that are correct with the exception of one part here
or there. Most of them are also incomplete, or don't
include strumming patterns, so this is probably the
best tab of this available. Enjoy.

Also, if you have the time, look for my first tab, "Riding
into the Sunset". It's the music that plays in the background
as cowboys ride their horses in western movies. It's really
simple, but fun to play!

Decided to learn this song but found all of the tabs up here to be insufficient. Some of
them had parts right here and there but gave no strum patterns or really mapped out the
song right. I can garauntee the Riffs and the Verse chords are right, yes they are hard
to finger and play but they will get you sounding exactly like Dean Deleo if you practice
playing them. Hope this helps.

Fingering for the verse: i-index, m-middle, r-ring, p-pinky
e|4-i---------------------|
B|5-m---4-m---2-m---2-m---|
G|4-i---5-r---1-i---1-i---|
D|6-r---6-p---3-p---2-r---|
A|4-i---3-i---2-r---1-i---|
E|------------------------|

These are the fingering I found the easiest to use since these are weird chords. On the
first chord here I place my pinky behing my ring finger and lift the ring finger up as I
am playing to get ready for the next chord. Pay attention to the fingers that stay on the
same string from chord to chord and use this to help you make fluid changes. Start very
slow and get use to the fingerings and changing between the chords.
