Ok, this is my first tab so go easy. It's a fun-sounding and easy song from a
great unknown band, so chances are no one sees this anyway. I didn't tab the
slide part, still figuring that out. Anyway, this is just the chords. Listen to
the song.
Intro:
Hit a B, then hammer on and pull off the 7th and 8th frets on the G string.
For the beginning of the vocals (before the drums kick in), you can basically
just slide up and down from A to B and back,
hitting each chord. For the A-Bb-Bb-B part, it's the same.
Listen to the record for timing and whatnot.

All my friends and my family are remarkable people, they are nothing like the
A B A-
creeps in this town.
Bb-Bb-B A B A B
There is time still ahead of me, the last among equals, I am keeping both my
A B A-Bb-Bb-B
ears to the ground.
The slide riff plays over this, but like I said, not yet tabbed.

There is a feeling I've been getting
B A E
That I have earned the town and state that I am in
B A E
I cannot leave, my feet will stop me from stepping
B A E
I'd kiss the ground but I don't know where it has been
D A E
Oh no, there are reasons but I can't explain
D A E
Well I can but not to you.
D A E
Oh I'm getting better at the waiting game
D A E
And I don't wanna lose.
B A E

B A E
We are the products of circumstances
B A E
And we reflect the sort of people we have known.
B A E
Whether by blood or by extended olive branches
B A E
All these people have determined how we've grown.
B A B A B
And I said very tactfully there's a mineshaft and a steeple and the otherwise
A B A-
indifferent middle ground.
Bb-Bb-B A B A B
All my friends and my family are remarkable people, they are nothing like the
A B A-Bb-Bb-B
creeps in this town
Comments-wise, be brutal but not too brutal. This is a band that I just want to
see get more recognition, so there you go.
