You want to know what brings me here, oh
Dm                                G                 C
Glide through my head like to fear,     and I know why

Am            Em
You live too far away
Am                      Em      G    F5-ring
Your voice rings like a bell anyway
                    Em-ring                       F5-ring
Don't give up your independence, 'cuz it feels so right
                     Em    G                           C5
Nothing good comes easily, sometimes you've got to fight

[Verse]
Dm                           G
  You launch a thousand ships in my heart, so easy
Dm                   G
  Still it's fine from afar, and you know that
 
 
[Chorus]
C5 Am   G
Whoa, Brainstorm take me away from the norm
C5 Am  G                             C5
Whoa, I've got to tell you something

this is really good but you made a minor error in the intro. the last segment should be e:----------------------| B:----------------------| G:----------------------| D:-------9---------9----| A:7-8-10---10---10---10-| E:----------------------|

+11

I saw 311 a few days ago. I watched them play this song from a few feet away. This is how the intro was played: [tab] e|----------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------5-------------------------------------| G|-----0-4-0--------5---5-------0-4-0~---4-0~---------------| D|-2/3----------5h7---------2/3-----------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------| [/tab]

tremolo. also, for that first solo, im pretty sure its octaves, not just single notes. also, how do u play the reggae sounding chords in the background?
