This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Tune down a half step.

Guitar uno, slightly distorted - the beginning

m m m m m pick up chord.

m m (m m) m m

m m m m m m

That's the whole little beginning part for the first guitar part, play it twice.

shortly after the words start going, the drums and the second guitar come in. Here's

the second guitar part, don't hurt yourself trying to play this! It might not be right

because you really can't hear it over the other guitar, but it doesn't matter because

it's a stupid, easy background part and nobody likes it!

play this TWO times.

Alright, now for the second part. I guess this is what you would call the pre-chorus.

It's where it's all like "don't believe in filler baby" or whatever the words are. It's

much more distorted than the beginning.

^comes in on the offbeat. Listen closely to it to get it.

That's the whole first part of the song. Chorus is pretty easy, it gets led into by

"THIS IS OVER!" Love this song so much. Here's the chorus. Play this twice, it's got

split endings though.

Those stars are natural harmonics. now play the whole thing again, then there's just

one more part to learn! Here it is. This is where everything kinda dies down, then

builds up again.

YES! Now just play the chorus, and those few chords that lead into the chorus, and

that's the end of the song! This is the first tab I've EVER done, EVER, so if you

like it or thought it was decent, rate it high. Thanks, your friend, T.
