I saw Plain White T's perform this song on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and Tim was using a capo on the 8th fret and Tom on the 4th. Gtr. 1 (acoustic): Capo 8 [All guitars are in standard tuning, EADGBE] Gtr. 2 (acoustic): Capo 4 [All chords are relative to capo] Gtr. 3 (electric): no capo ALL Chords in parenthesis are Gtr.2 I think the G/BG/B in the bridge may just be a G+G and the BB is probably played by the bass, but you can play it either way. Intro: Gtr. 1: (Capo 8)(Not the exact number of times he strums each chord, but you can figure it out) E--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
