*Track #3 on HOME: Volume 5... just not exactly like a standard Ben Gibbard song you know the drill) but there is still the picking on the C major chord and tieng notes/hammer from open chord/using a capo and so on. I'm quite positive it's pretty close, with some around the "...outstretched beyond your reach singing ooh, baby please" part. :)*
(when switching from C to G at the end of the riff play the last picked note while you fingering G; it makes it a much smother transition)
****CAPO:3**** -listen to song for stumming and down/upbeats -chords at bottom x=mute p=pull off h=hammer on
Play INTRO while: "I can't begin to compete with you and everyone knows I know you know too..."/
CGCEmC "It's a complicated fear that grows with every year and it's walking on GD it's own finally"
INTRO x2 and while: "All I can offer are farmer chords, these simple rhymes and you in words"/
CGCEmC You can sing this when alone or whistle it through your teeth and it GCEmC will feel like home no matter how far you'll be from my lonely arms GF#/GCadd9CEmD outstretched just beyond your reach singing "ooh, baby, please..." (not sure on exact chords... play around with (he does) it and you'll figure it out)
INTRO x2
Play INTRO while: "I can't begin to compete with you and everyone knows I know you know too..."/
