Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: Db

Difficulty: Intermediate

My Name - Phillip Phillips
Tabbed by Nik0337
Nice and relatively easy to play for the most part - it's also got quite a cool solo.
The album version of this song is split between bass and lead guitar but I have tabbed this for lead and so
bits of it are an octave higher than they should be.

Solo:
This is my best approximation of the solo but you'll probably have to work it out for yourself. There are
definitely some fast hammer-ons that I couldn't resonably tab. Timing's a bit off but I think I have at least
got the relevant bits in each bar.
