Repeat the verse 1 riffs:
Stars looking at a planet watching entropy and pain And maybe start to
wonder how the chaos in our lives could pass as sane I’ve been
thinkin’ ‘bout the meaning of resistance Of a hope beyond my own and
suddenly the infinite and penitent begin to look like home I’ve been
thinkin’ ‘bout

tim doesnt use a 5 string retard, he uses a 4 string

Just saw them in concert..simply awesome! Yes Tim uses a 4-string Jazz Bass with either a Line-6 M9 for his sound or a AXE II, which, oddly enough, are guitar processors; but he makes them sound amazing. Don't know why people thinks he uses a 5-string cause he doesn't go below drop D...Oh well, see them in concert, you wont regret it, i wont cause i got a pick from the man Drew Shirley during a song, not a toss in the crowd, but he actually handed me it...which is why i'm officially his number 1 fan, go Switchfoot!!

awesome tab, the intro is perfect! just a little iffy on the verse and chorus
