We The Kings - Secret Valentine Chords & Tabs

Song: Secret Valentine
Artist: We The Kings 
Tunning: Half Step Down or Standard
Tabbed by: Jorge Ueda (chicho_ueda@hotmail.com -- so Any suggestions)

The only great difference between all the tabs out there and my tab is that
I tabbed the piano intro, so you can play it nice on an acoustic performance.

I wrote my own intro and I tabbed Travis intro, so you can choose the one
that you find easy going to play...


This one was made up by me: 
     e|---------------0----------------------------------------------- 
     B|-3---3---3---3---2---2---2---2-3-0---0---0---0-2-3---3---3---3-
     G|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--   x2 
     D|---4---4---4-------4---4---4-------4---4---4-------4---4---4--- 
     A|--------------------------------------------------------------- 
     E|--------------------------------------------------------------- 

And this one is the one Travis uses when singing this song on acoustic guitar: 
     e|--------------------------------------------------------------- 
     B|-3---3---3---3---2---2---2---2---0---0---0---0---2---2---2---2- 
     G|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--   x2 
     D|---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4--- 
     A|--------------------------------------------------------------- 
     E|--------------------------------------------------------------- 


**************************************************************

After that, here's the complete tab, I made a little changes in this tab so it
will sound better in an acoustic guitar...
