it all out note for note. I'm pretty sure it's just like the album version. Let me
know what you think.

Tuning: Standard- EADGBE

1st Guitar: Acoustic: Strums this progression through the whole song non-stop
[A   Bm   D   A]
2nd Guitar: Electric: with a bit of distortion playing this:

Hope, for a destination. . .
