...and that's it.
sorry I don't have a song structure for you, but i don't feel like doing it right
now...it's easy enough to figure out. to get the best sound, use a single-coil in the
middle position
I do, however, have the lyrics
dead leaves and the dirty ground
when i know you're not around
shiny tops and soda pops
when i hear your lips make a sound
thirty notes in the mailbox
will tell you that i'm coming home
and i think i'm gonna stick around
for a while so you're not alone
if you can hear a piano fall
you can hear me coming down the hall
if i could just her your pretty voice
i don't think i need to see at all
soft hair and a velvet tongue
i want to give you what you give to me
and every breath that is in your lungs
is a tiny little gift to me
i didn't feel so bad till the sun went down
then i come home
no one to wrap my arms around
well any man with a microphone
can tell you what he loves the most
and you know why you love at all
if your thinking of the holy ghost
IF YOU CAN HEAR A PIANO FALL YOU CAN HEAR ME COMIN DOWN THE HALL
A G C IF I COULD JUST HEAR YOUR PRETTY VOICE I DONT THINK I NEED TO D5/A A5 SEE AT ALL D5 G A5 DONT THINK I NEED TO SEE AT ALL G5 C D5/A A SOFT HAIR AND A VELVET TONGUE I WANT TO GIVE YOU WHAT YOU GIVE TO ME A5 G C5/G D5/A A AND EVERY BREATH THAT IS IN YOUR LUNGS IS A TINY LITTLE GIFT TO ME F5 G5 A IS A TINY LITTLE GIFT TO ME

This is a pretty hard song to tab out, due to
the riffs before the verse. You don't have to
play them exactly, just add bits or take them
away according to your taste. Parts of this tab
are based on Jack playing live.

play that clean stuff until he starts singing then do something like this
(based off these chords A G C D A A G C D A F G A- the guitar behind
the verse has a really loose feel and kinda changes each time)
then play verse again until end(he kinda mixes the clean tone intro stuff
into verse so listen closely)
email me with any complaints suggestions or questions! this is my first tab
