New American Classic Chords & Tabs
ok, first off, I would like to say that I hadnt even looked any other tabs
before I tabbed this one and would like to congratulate the person with the
57-voted-on-5-star tab. It looks a LOT like the way I tabbed it, but he
never finished it. I have the full version here, and I did not copy
anything from anyone. This is as close to 100% correct as this tuning is
gonna give it. Complete with lyrics.

when all that we need is just a reaction is it too much to ask for when
there’s no attraction anymore? if chasing our dreams is just a distraction
I want to remember who I know that I cant go by
