I heard it on WNNX and they mentioned that this band was from Austin, so I payed special attention cause I lived in Austin for my whole life and moved to Atlanta this year, and I thoroughly enjoyed the song.

It's really not necessary to play and is pretty quiet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -----------------------3---3-3--3--3--3-3-3--7---7-7--7--7--7-7-7--5---5-5----| -3---3-3--3--3--3-3-3--3---3-3--3--3--3-3-3--7---7-7--7--7--7-7-7--5---5-5----| -3---3-3--3--3--3-3-3--1---1-1--1--1--1-1-1--5---5-5--5--5--5-5-5--3---3-3----| -1---1-1--1--1--1-1-1---------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -5--5--5-5-5------------------------------------------------------------------| -5--5--5-5-5------------------------------------------------------------------| -3--3--3-3-3------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Chorus: The mutes at the beginning are occassionally there, but they sound good, and throw in some mutes during the chorus when there's a chord change it makes it sound cool, I guess.

I love this song. I think this is a very easy song to play, and it'll sound good with a band.
