xThis is the tab as it appeared on guitartabs.cc, but I didn't think to include the
tabber's name when I copied it, so whoever you are, thank you. I've added a couple
at
end of the tab, but they stay true to the original chords. Have fun; this is an
song. And please, please, post anything else by M Ward that you know--I live on his music.

this is pretty close but not 100 percent, obviously, listen to the song
for how long to play the chords and the strumming pattern,
Okay, this guy tabbed it pretty well, so i'll just add a couple little things that sound good.
For the Dsus2 and G6add4, I usually go with a Bass-Strum-Mess Around With the High
pattern.
For me, it looks about like this:
e---------0-----0-------0--------------0--------0-------------|
B------2-----2-----2--2---2--------2-----2--2-------2---------|
G------3-----3--------3----3-------0--------0----0------------|
D---0--0-----0--------0------------0--------------------------|
A---0---------------------------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------3-----------------------------|
...and so on. It's not even close to a set-in-stone pattern...I think some kind of bass
and the strumming are
important, but it really doesn't matter what strings you strum or what you do with the
strings.
And now for the Bm: at the end of each verse, he does a nice little riff on the Bm.
Lately I haven't even been barring it; I just finger it
like this, low E to high: 000432
The riff is something like this:
e----2-0-------0----2-0--------2-0-------2----2-0--------------|
B--------3-2-3----------3-0--------3-2-3----------3-2----------|
G--------------------------------------------------------------|
D--------------------------------------------------------------|
A--------------------------------------------------------------|
E--------------------------------------------------------------|
I didn't include the strumming, but your thumb should probably be doing something while
fingers
work on the high strings. and again, it's not set in stone. this is just how i play
approximately.
mess around and have fun.
