VERSE
~~~~~
Just repeat the intro 'till you get the pre-chorus

PRE-CHORUS
~~~~~~~~~~
This are the chords used in this part.
If you figure out it's just one finger out between A augmentedA and Asus2Asus2
It's just how many times and the way you play them.

  It's driven me before, it seems to have a vague Haunting mass appeal

  Lately I'm beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel


Repeat this through the Chorus (Thanks Mike Mahon)

I made a minor change in the inversion of the E MajorE minor
used in the verse based on the video that came out
recently. I always thought the open position E MajorE minor
sounded funny, and seeing Mike play his E minorEm at the 7th
fret verified my suspicion.


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

Some minor corrections to the chords above.
The Intro/Verse/Chorus needs a little tweaking. I will list here the 4
required chords for the Intro/Verse/Chorus. From the tab above, you can
figure out the progression.
