natshere - 2005-01-03

awesome job dude it really sounds just like the song with the right gear. I used a footpedal that is really good though, Mantis. Made it myself.

RK911 - 2005-01-03

Penguin_Lover - 2005-01-23

jamforchrist123 - 2005-04-25

Im' With RK911. What PedaL Do You Use For The Verse?

Choysauce - 2005-06-13

ahhhhh, now that i listen with headphones, i got so many parts wrong. ima redo this when my finals are done ^__^

Choysauce - 2005-06-13

and about the pedal, it might be a light flanger, not sure though, i can definitely hear the acoustic guitar in the background though

cgplaya - 2005-06-15

Verse should be:
C5 D5 F5 G5

nice guy - 2005-06-28

i think for the most part he might use a D2 maga distortion peddle, keep up the good work... steven

jamforchrist123 - 2005-07-21

Actully, It Kinda Sounds Like Chords On A Bass

greatbass123 - 2005-08-12

awesome job on this tab. i love relient k they have such hard riffs to learn. i tried forever to learn this by myself i guess i was pretty close but that is an awesome tab.

EcPuNkRoCkEr92 - 2005-12-02

the intro is actually
33 44 4 77 \10 10 9 9 10
55 55 5 88 \10 10 10 10 10
33 44 4 77 9 9
55 55 5 88 10 10

EcPuNkRoCkEr92 - 2005-12-02

oh yeah i almost 4got i'm pretty sure you don't use any effects on the verse
other than that it's a pretty good tab

EcPuNkRoCkEr92 - 2005-12-06

i kinda made this look weird so im making it look better
33 44 4 77 \10 10 9 9 10
55 55 5 88 \10 10 10 10 10

33 44 4 77 9 9
55 55 5 88 10 10

TFKmaniac92 - 2005-12-24

EcPuNkRoCkEr92 - 2005-12-30

TFKmaniac92 - 2006-02-07

5 5 5 5
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
5 5 5 5 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 5 5 5 5 and then you repeat it again and end on this
3 3 3 3 5 5 5 5 3 3 3 3
