Thanks to everyone on the AFI boards who helped getting the problems sorted out. And 
to AFI for writing an amazing song (even if it took forever to tab).

Please comment on anything about the tab.

(Lyrics during the last chorus are not confirmed anywhere that I have searched, which is 
so they are simply my interpretation).

alright, I made 2 typos, neither really dealing with the tab though. The lyrics should say "...jump from the height of our cutting room floor..." and the very last introduction of guitar 2 comes in 2 measures later than where I put the warning, but I indicated it in the tab correctly anyways, so not a big heartache. This is my first "official" tab, so any and all commetns are greatly appreciated.
