GUITAR TAB

All tremolo picked

Play that through twice as the "oooh" vocal comes in, then again starting as Matt sings "Don't grow up to fast"

Solo:
Sweep delay.
Fuzz settings: Gate:7, Comp:12, Drive:12, Stab:~7. This is using the "clock" system (ie. the Comp knob is
pointing to 12 o'clock, or straight up.)
Studio version uses a fade-in, a similar effect could be gained using a volume pedal, I'd imagine.
For the live version, Matt starts with the Comp at about 5 and twists it up to 12. He sometimes plays with the
Stab to alter the pitch as he's doing it.

Play through twice, then play:

G|-12///14///15///17///19///20-22--------------------------------19--19--|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|

Play this again through the last verse. After the end of the final line, turn the Comp on the Fuzz back down
to 5 if you're play the live version. For the studio ending, end on Bb chord (x1333x)
