Song: Nothing That Has Happened So Far Has Been Anything We Could Control
Tuning: Standard
 
(It's normally in that D-tuning Parker always uses,but I guess
you don't need it. So here it is in standard)
First the synth plays some chords. Then, when the drums enter, play this.
They are some sort of slow upstrokes)
 
e|-8-----------|
B|-8-----------|
G|-8---[x4]----|
D|-6-----------|
A|-------------|
E|-------------|
 
[Singing also enters]
e|-4-------1---------------1---------|
B|-4---6---1---3---8---6---1---3-----|
G|-5---6---1---3---8---6---1---3-----|
D|-6---6---3---3---8---6---3---3-----|
A|-6---4---3---1---6---6---3---1-----|
E|-4-------1---------------1---------|
 
[Ends with]
e|-8----|
B|-8----|
G|-8----|
D|-6----|
A|------|
E|------|
 
(The dialogue thing comes in 'What are you doing out here?'.
You can keep on playing the chords from the
second bar. When the singing comes back, he also plays those
He plays some different chords at 'Is it right?' and later on
at 'I just get one' until 'I wasn't our decision')
 
e|-4-------1-----------------------4-----1---------------1--------|
B|-4---6---1---3---8---6---4---3---4-----1---3---8---6---1---3----|
G|-5---6---1---3---8---6---4---3---5-----1---3---8---6---1---3----|
D|-6---6---3---3---8---6---4---3---6-----3---3---8---6---3---3----|
A|-6---4---3---1---6---6---2---1---6-----3---1---6---6---3---1----|
E|-4-------1-----------------------4-----1---------------1--------|
(But plays the normal progression after that again)
 
(Then we get some break. I think these chords are played or at least sound
alright)
e|----------------------|
B|-6---6---8------10----|
G|-7---7---9------10----|
D|-7---7---9------10----|
A|-5---x---7------8-----|

(Also, from 3:25 onwards, something like this, hidden in a lot of noise)

(From 'Nothing that has happened...' at 5:19, the synth at the background plays
the vocal melody from earlier this song 'Elodie, look at me...)
