i fucking love this song. i led off a set with it last night and had a few guys from the bands i played with who love latterman in the audience, so it was extra cool playing it to people who know all the words.

I love Latterman, such a good band. Your cover is not bad at all, man. I like it. Puts a nice spin on the song. How'd you figure out the chords to do this? I've always wanted to learn some of their songs but I suck at doing it by ear and I can't find tabs anywhere.

i really don't know if those are the exact chords, but it's extremely easy.


chords (the first one is Emaj, the second and third i don't know the name of so i'll just refer to them as "2nd and 3rd".)

0 0 0
0 0 0
1 1 1
2 2 2
2 0 0
0 0 2

for the verse (and i can feel another winter... to "and our voices are blendingtogether)

it's just e-2nd-e-2nd

for the prechorus (and i can still see them in circles in and out... up to the chorus)

e-2nd-3rd-2nd

chorus
e-2nd-3rd-e

break between chorus and verse 2 is just e-2nd. i like to throw in a few riffs, i'm pretty sure the one they play is 3,2,3,1,2,3

verse 2
prechorus 2
chorus 2

for the bridge from the end of the chorus up until "and these stories they go on and on" it's just 3rd-2nd repeated. there's four times you do this up until the last part; the first two times, pick it, the last two times, down strum it)

"and these stories":
e-2nd-3rd-2nd

"woah"
e-2nd-3rd-2nd

outro:
e-2nd-3rd-2nd


i hope this is somewhat readable, i've never done a tab and i don't know the names of the 2nd and 3rd chords. it's a really easy song to replicate, it may not be the exact chords but it's pretty close i think

The chords you use definitely sound close to the song, no complaints here, haha. Thanks for the tab, dude. Is this song your favorite by them?

honestly dude, it'd be hard to pinpoint one favorite latterman song, but it's definitely up there. top three are probably doom doom doom, this, and fear and loathing. such a great band.
