My Best Theory by Jimmy Eat World

Tabs

My Best Theory - Jimmy Eat World
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Totes Magotes
Email: [email protected]


Notes: 1. Tab as well as the corresponding chords. Lyrics might be off a bit.

    2. */* & *()* for alternate or optional notes/chords. Some of them are
    pretty close but I gave both options. Personally, I feel like the Chord diagramE minorEm
    works best in the verses and Chord diagramE minor 7Em7 in the chorus.

Tuning: Standard
Lead Guitar Intro: (Riff also plays during chorus)

Verse 1:

Em/Em7         Chord diagramAsus4Asus4              (Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4)

 It's been a long time, so long; there's only one life I know

Em/Em7          Chord diagramAsus4Asus4            (Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4)

 But I have my own mind, I'll say so if it seems right
                           oh, rush out

Em/Em7              Chord diagramAsus4Asus4             (Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4)

 I see your warm face with the soft mouth, but it speaks something else

Em/Em7             Chord diagramAsus4Asus4           Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4

 I'll take my chances with the cast down, we can feel the air

Chorus:

Em/Em7

Rush out, out from the center

D/Asus4       Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4  Chord diagramD MajorD

Not like one side is any better

Em/Em7

Stand up as they've been preaching

D/Asus4      Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4   Chord diagramD MajorD

My best theory is already in me


Em/Em7


Verse 2:

Chord diagramAsusAsus            Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4 Em/Em7

We can feel, we can feel the air
                 rush out

Em/Em7           Chord diagramAsus4Asus4        (Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4)

 So many questions, and the answers come back unanswered

Em/Em7              Chord diagramAsus4Asus4            Chord diagramDsus4Dsus4

 Let's hold the old script, it's a new twist, you can feel the air


(Chorus)


Bridge:

Chord diagramE minorEm            Chord diagramG+G

In a lonely, real place / Neither part nor mistake

C/Esus2(maj7)        Chord diagramBB  (Chord diagramDsusDsus 4 Chord diagramD MajorD)

Not what you had with your time

Chord diagramE minorEm		    Chord diagramG+G

My doubt sings faith / My true desire

C/Esus2(maj7)    Chord diagramBB

My threat, my appetite
