I checked out the other tab for this song but I'm pretty sure that they aren't right. This sounds really good when you play it with any version, even the ones with John Mayer.

(C and G are actually called Cadd9 and Gadd9 durring the verses but for space I used C and G.)
Capo four Try sliding and hammering up and down patterns for A G and D and they all sound really cool.

(Same as above for all the rest) (Verse2)
Half an hour later we packed up our things
Said we'd send letters, and all of those little things
And they knew we were lying, but they smiled just the same
It seemed they'd already forgotten we came
(Chorus) same as above
(Bridge] same as chorus
(Verse)
Back at the homestead, where the air makes you choke
And people don't know you and trust is a joke
We don't even have pictures, just memories to hold
That grow sweeter each season as we slowly grow old
