"Oh! Gravity"
by Switchfoot
tabbed by Nate H.
Alright, theres no way I could line up the two guitar parts with each other, but I tried
to space them out at least relatively accurately. Alot of the time when one guitar pauses
the other plays its riff, and the go back and forth (Verse, and Bridge for example.)

Both guitars play the riff that guitar 1 played in the first verse.
Chorus 2
Same as first one until Jon Foreman yells "WHOA! this tragedy, why cant we..."
which goes.

If you want, on the last D5 chord you can add another D on the 3rd string 7th fret. I like
the sound of that better but it doesnt make much of difference because I cant tell whether they
are or not.

The music stops for the first part. Then guitar 2 slowly fades in with the A octave
again with some tremolo type effects on then when he sings "WOAH this tragedy..."
the guitars come back in.
