Song:I Will Follow You Into The Dark
Band:Death Cab For Cutie
Album:Plans
To make it less confusing I have tabs for each chord for the verse and the chorus. When
you see the chord you play the tab. This is the way Ben Gibbard played the song on the
album. Finger pluck the song for best sound but use your nail on the muted notes.
Capo 5th Fret
x=Mute
1s= One Strum
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
