This song is completely amazing.  I heard it on WNNX and they mentioned that
this band was from Austin, so I payed special attention cause I lived in
Austin for my whole life and moved to Atlanta this year, and I thoroughly
enjoyed the song.

Prechorus Lead:  Something like this
-5b7r-

Prechorus Rhythm:  Distorted guitar randomly played along with the other two guitar
parts which keep playing what they've been playing, this is an overdubbed
guitar unless they have 3 guitarists.  It's really not necessary to play and
is pretty quiet.

Chorus:  The mutes at the beginning are occassionally there, but they sound
good, and throw in some mutes during the chorus when there's a chord change
it makes it sound cool, I guess.

Near the end after the bridge, play the chorus a few times and the last time,
play the bridge and end on the D power chord.  I love this song.

I think this is a very easy song to play, and it'll sound good with a band.
