This is my favorite Yellowcard song, and I just wasn't happy with the other tabs.
Version 1) Didn't have any minor chords.
Version 2) Had too many minor chords.
Version 3) Made my head hurt, and missed the 5th chord in the Chorus. (Who are you
calling tone deaf?!)
Version 4) Good, but missed the mysterious 5th chord in the Chorus. (It's not C major!)
I've listened over and over, and I'm convinced that THESE are the true chords.
I've also added an easier version for beginners in the key of "Em".
True Version: Key of "C#m"
Chords Used: E, A, B, C#m, G#7
Standard Tuning: EADGBe
E Major: x221xx
A Major: xx222x
*B Major: 224442
*C# Minor: 446654
*G# Dominant 7th: 464574 (Also called G# Major with a minor 7th)
Note: "*" means it's a bar chord.
Also, If you don't feel comfortable with G#7, you can play a normal G# Major.
