This is my first tab. If you find any mistakes, please post a

correction so that we can make this as accurate as possible!

Update 11/6/09: Made several corrections to Verse 1, redid most of the

tremolo sections, made slight changes to guitar 2's part in the "phantom

walks to the sea" and "lost it all" sections. I promise you this tab is at

least 95% accurate.

Guitar 1

Slowly ease down on the rate of your tremolo.

Fade in each note. Play this part three times: The first time,

it’s only guitar 1, the second and third time, both guitars

play it. The third time, don’t do the two slides at the end.

I’d never meant for you

To mend this heart back in from two

So eeeaaaasilyyyyyy we loost it aaall

Then:

Guitar 1: Tremolo the second 7 and the slides

|

|Guitar 2:

So eeeaaaasilyyyyyy we loost it aaall

Guitar 1 switches to this, all tremolo:

|

|Guitar 2:

So eeeaaaasilyyyyyy we loost it aaaa-

Then:

Guitar 1

|

|Guitar 2: (still the same speed, this is for comparison)

-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllll!

Repeat Chorus 2

Repeat Intro (minus the final slide to 19)

Outro:

|Guitar 1

|X4

|Guitar 2: (with feedback)

Fade…

We’re done!
