Switchfoot - Shadow Proves The Sunshine Chords & Tabs

Switchfoot
The Shadow Proves The Sunshine (Acoustic)
Nothing Is Sound
Tabbed by: Candace Ware

Tuning - Standard Tuning (E A D G B E)

(This is my first attempt at writing tab, but I just didn’t think any of the other
did this song any justice.  I was listening to a live acoustic and I’m pretty sure these are
cords Jon uses (especially because these are the cords used in other songs like “Dare 
To Move” and “Awakening”).  Any feedback would be appreciated)
