I've always had quite a liking to this song, so i tabbed it for all you Matthew Good fans out there. The chords i use here are slightly edited, so check the chord listing at the bottom of the page before you attempt to play. Also, i only tabbed out the intro and the piano outro as the rest of the soloing done by the instruments in this song isnt important to playing this song. I hope this helps, and rememeber, this is only a rough guide! Feel free to email me with any requests or any questions you may have!
