Bridge:

There's no guitar in this bit, but I like to improv a solo based around these notes:

e|-------------------------|
B|-------------------------|
G|-9---7---5---------------|
D|-------------7---5---3---|
A|-------------------------|
E|-------------------------|

Basically just the main chord progression's root notes played an octave up, with an E and an A thrown in to
shake things up a bit.


Chorus:

It sounds really 'Tom DeLonge' if you do a pick slide before this chorus, cos he's always throwing them in
there in live shows.

e|-----------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------|
G|--7-7\5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------------|
D|--7-7\5-5-5-3-5-5-5--5--3-3-3-3-3-3------|
A|--5-5\3-3-3-3-3-3-3--5--3-3-3-3-3-3------| x8
E|---------------------3--1-1-1-1-1-1------|

End on
