I think the intro is actually played by two instruments, one playing the
two alternating bottom notes and the other one playing the top ones, but I
just tabbed it for one guitar. The intro has a half-time feel.
Intro:

riff 1 x4 (strum F#mI on 1st beat of 1st bar)
The rest of the band comes in at bar 31, after the intro. There are two
guitars: one strumming chords (written with the lyrics below) and one
playing riffs. The one playing the riffs use some kind of vibrato/tremolo
effect. The bends are 1/4 tone in the first bar and 3/4 tone in the second
bar.
Verses:
riff 3:
F#m
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-------------0--2--3q-2--|-------------2b(t)-2b(t)-|
E|-2--------2--------------|-2-----2-----------------|
In the first bar, bend the note on the fourth beat right when you pick it.
In the second bar, play the B on the third beat and then bend 3/4 tone on
the half beat; do the same on the fourth beat.
riff 4:
C#m
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

In verse 1, the riffs are played in this order (you can also just refer to
the chords with the lyrics below -- the name of the chords are the same as
the ones on top of the riffs):
riff 3 x4
riff 4 x1
riff 3 x1
riff 4 x1
riff 5 x1
riff 6 x2
riff 7 x1
Guitar solo 1:
During the first solo, the verse riffs are NOT played, but the other guitar
continues to strum the chords (written above the tab).

This time, one guitar plays riff 3 over and over (approx. 20 times) and then
fades out. The other guitar strums F#m until the fade out.

Lyrics and chords:
Through the verses, the basic strumming pattern is this:
4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + There are some variations, but since
/ | / R / R / | the song has a loose feel, you don't
need to be very precise.
Intro:
(start on bar 5)
Someday soon
I don't know when
Your little world
Will come crashing in
Don't think twice
I'll be around
Turn your back
Someone's gonna let you down
You know that it's true
Nobody led you on
They left that to you
Now you'll be alone
When the sun comes up
With your tattered little dreams
And a broken cup
Then you'll have to
Trust yourself
And don't believe in anymore lies
Verse 1:
F#m
You waste your time
Think too much
Really make a mess
Of the things you touch
Poor little bird
With a broken wing
Better look around now
C#m
You know you're losing everything
F#m
It's just a game
C#m
Thought you had it all lined up
B
But somehow that's changed
D
Now you'll have to run
A
And not get caught
D
Now you'll have to hide
A
If you like it or not
Then you'll have to
D A
Trust yourself
B D F#m (guitar solo)
And don't believe in anymore lies
F#m x4 bars C#m x4 bars D7 x4 bars C#7 x2 bars F#m x2 bars
F#m
Someday soon
It won't be long
You'll ring a bell
But they'll all be gone
They took your jewels
And your statues too
Left you with a pile of things
C#m
You never learned how to use
F#m
Here it comes again
C#m
You showed us where it all began
B
Well here's where it ends
D
Now you'll be alone
A
When the sun comes up
D
With your tattered little dreams
A
And a broken cup
Then you'll have to
D A
Trust yourself
B D
And don't believe in anymore
D A
Trust yourself
B D
And don't believe in anymore
D A
Trust yourself
B D F#m (guitar solo)
And don't believe in anymore lies
yeah yeah yeah...
F#m until the fade out
Tab eplanation:
b --> bend, to the note of the fret in parentheses
r --> release bend
== --> hold bend
/,\ --> slide up, down
q --> quarter tone bend
b(t)--> 3/4 tone bend
h --> hammer-on
p --> pull-off
(9) --> ghost note
P.H.--> pinch harmonic
R --> rest
Notes:
-The numbers above the tab represent the beats and half-beats. It's the best
way I found to express rhythm in tab.
-Each note is held until the next one, unless there in an R, which stands
for rest, and then there should be silence until the next note.
-I've tabbed out the solos, but this is really a jam tune, so improvisation
is probably more appropriate than following the tab. The solos are
based on the F minor pentatonic scale, so that can be used as a
starting point.
