Tuning:Standard
 
This is one of my favorite Alkaline Trio songs to listen to and play
It's pretty easy, once you get all the timing with the words
The words and the tabs go together, so it would make it easier to.
Good luck and enjoy.
Holla if I need corrections. Peace.

Yeah, it was really good up to the ending, good job! I think other than the ending, all you missed were some slides in the intro.
