This is a really good song and its very simple to play.The whole song is
acoustic, but you could play it with an electric if you anted to.Thats
what I used to tab this song out.

Tuning: Normal(eADGBE)

The intro is two guitars even though they only have one guitarist.So I
have wrote the chords and the guitar riff thing that plays in the
background also.

Intro: Little guitar part in the background.It's played on the intro and
verses.Listen to the song for timing.This is played through the whole
song except for the the chorus.

Main Guitar: These are just chords and they are very simple.Listen to
the song for the strumming patterns.The D chord has a little hammer pull
off thing too.It goes along with the guitar part in the background.

Intro and verse fill.

1st Verse

Em       C            Em       C                Em      C
I wanted you to know, I love the way you laugh, I want to hold you high 

     D(with the hammer and pull off)
and steal your pain....away.

Em       C              Em      C                 Em      C
I keep your photograph, I know it serves me well, I want to hold you 

           D(with hammer and pull off)
high and steal your pain.


Chorus

          C     Em          C    Em             C      Em         C 
Cause I'm broooken, but I'm ooopen, and I don't feeel like I am strong 

 Em               C    Em            C     Em                  C
enough. Cause I'm broooken, when I'm looonesome, and I don't feeel 

 Em                 C    Em  
right, when you're gone away.   (right after this just play the verse 
fill which is just the same thing as the intro,it also has the guitar
part in the background with it)


2nd Verse

Em        C            Em      C                Em     C
The worst is over now, and we can breath again, I want to hold you 

          D(with hammer and pull off)
high, and steal my pain....away. 

Em          C                  Em   
There's so much left to learn, and no

 C                 Em     C                    D
one else to fight, I want to hold you high and steal your pain.


Repeat the chorus.

Right here before the solo theres a small little harmonic and its easy
to play, it's also played at the end.

-|-12X---------------------------------------------------------------
-|-12X---------------------------------------------------------------

-|-------------------------------------------------------------------


While the solo is playing, the other guitar is just play the verse fill
(Em,C,Em,C,Em,C,D,D) and the D is played without the hammer on and pull
off.

Solo.

-|-------------------------------------------------------------------
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------
-|-9-----------------------------------------------------------------
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus again.


Then play the verse fill but you don't play the D with the hammer and
pull off.

During the verse fill, it has another part with harmonics which, after
trial and error I finally figured out.

-|-12X---------------12X---------------------------------------------
-|---12X---------------12X------20X----------------------------------
-|----------12X--------------------20X-------------------------------
-|-------12X--------------------------20X----------------------------
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------
   ^Repeat then play this harmonic and Em chord.

-|-12X----0----------------------------------------------------------
-|-12X----0----------------------------------------------------------
-|-12X----0----------------------------------------------------------
-|-12X----2----------------------------------------------------------
-|--------2----------------------------------------------------------
-|--------0----------------------------------------------------------

 Like I said, this is a very simple song.The solo is 100% correct.I'm
pretty sure the whole song is 100% correct because I edited it over and
over again.I checked it and double checked it again to make sure it was
right on.But, if you find a mistake,correction, or just want to comment
