Tabbed by: Zkar
Got a couple of tabs from the net, none souded quite right so I decided to go
ahead and write my own. This is a great (stunning) song, I salute Lifehouse for
this wonderful experience.
This is my 1st tab, so bear with my chord positioning, just play the chords and
you'll figure out the exact timing :-)
Have fun!, email me if you have any questions/feedback (zkar@hotmail.com)

**Chorus (end on G and immediately go to Chorus again for la-da-da... etc..)
G
As you, I've felt the same
Move on to play chorus on a more acoustic rithm, while holding last 2 strings
on 3rd fret on EVERY note to give it that high "chime". End on Em.
