Passion Pit - My brother taught me how to swim acoustic

My Brother Taught Me How To Swim - Noise Acoustic Version - Passion Pit Tabbed by: Alex M. Tuning: Standard (EADGBe) This is an interpretation of only the main guitar part of the song. Since it features so many layers of guitars (and/or mandolins?) it was difficult to extract the correct parts. Because of this, there may be some notes added in that would have been played on the other instruments.

The main guitar stops most of its playing and plays mostly bass notes. I improvised a bit, so feel free to do the same. Just hold the chord shape and go at it.)
