Holiday From Real tab by Jacks Mannequin

Tabs

The are a lot of wrong tabs around the internet for this song, so I thought I would
it a try. By no means is this tab perfect, its my first tab.

Song: Holiday From Real
Artist: Jack's Mannequin
Album: Everything in Transit

Note: This song is in the Key of A minorAm so all notes are natural (no sharps or flats).

Intro/verse 1: Piano and bass. Piano plays these chords: Am, G, F, Em, FF (note, to try
reproduce this on guitar, try Am, G, and FF barre chords and make the E minorEm and E5E5)

On: "She lets me drive her car..."
E MajorE|---8-7---7-5---(5)-5/3-(3/5)----------------------|
BB|-------8---------------------5-6------------------|
G+G|--------------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|--------------------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|--------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|--------------------------------------------------|

bit before chorus (guitar is only a light buzz in the background):

D MajorD|--7-------5--------3-------3----------------------|
A augmentedA|--------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|5-------3--------1-------1------------------------|

CHORUS (its quite hard to tell what's going on here because there are many instruments
the guitar(s) are quite quiet compared to them, but when I play this[and I don't just
this by myself] I play:)

E MajorE|5--------3-------1----0-1-------------------------|
BB|5--------3-------1----0-1-------------------------|
G+G|5--------4-------2----x-2-------------------------|
D MajorD|77777777-5555555-3333-2-333-----------------------|
A augmentedA|77777777-5555555-3333-2-333-----------------------|
E MajorE|55555555-3333333-1111-0-111-----------------------|
  ....... ...... ...  ..etc (play it with the song and it makes a bit more sense)

Verse 2:
Piano (for guitar):
A minorAm   G+G     FF    FF
E MajorE|--------------------------------------------------|

CHORUS again, but ending play:

E MajorE|--------------------------------------------------|
BB|--------------------------------------------------|
G+G|--------------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|-7-7/5(5)/3/2-------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|-x-x-x-x--x-x-------------------------------------|
E MajorE|-5-5/3(5)/1/0-------------------------------------|

BRIDGE (I can't tell what the hell is going on here, but C, which is the relative major
A minorAm is definitely involved a key switch maybe?)

CHORUS (again)
