*Track #3 on HOME: Volume 5... just not exactly like a standard Ben Gibbard song
you know the drill) but there is still the picking on the C major chord and tieng notes/hammer
from open chord/using a capo and so on. I'm quite positive it's pretty close, with some 
around the "...outstretched beyond your reach singing ooh, baby please" part.
:)*


(when switching from C to G at the end of the riff play the last picked note while you
fingering G; it makes it a much smother transition)
