Transcribed by Justin Goldner

Standard E Tuning
Pretty simple song, 4 parts, mostly repeatitive. Track 2 on their new
album. Pretty good, first song I heard from it. Interesting first
chord progression, something similar to Stay from their self-titled LP
for the post-chorus riff-type thing, and Green Day's Basket Case for
the verse and pre-chorus. Nice ring to it. Layout's like this:
Chorus - E B F#m D, E F#m A
Chord Riff - B F#m G#m Am G#m E
Verse - E B C#m G#m A B
Pre-Chorus - A B E C#m, A B E

Pre-Chorus
Transition - F#m G#m A (E)
Chorus x3
Chorus-
Most of the time it's power chords, but for the third-to-last chorus
Goldfinger strums the full bar.

D---2--4--4--7---2--4--7---
A---2--2--4--5---2--4--7---

Chord Riff-
Play like a riff but use the entire power chord
