This song made it's debut during the summer 2006 tour, and as far as I know, as of now
is no studio version. This is what I could come up with based on the best quality
recordings I have of the song (with two different lead guitarists, but the parts are
similar). 2006-09-27 has Chris (who played electric guitar) and Rich Robinson totally audible,
Paul Stacey is nowhere to be found on the verses/choruses, while 2006-07-23 sounds like
mic was placed in front of Marc Ford's amp. There's a lot of improvisation on every part
this song (especially on the parts I tabbed out during the jam), so have fun with it.
Intro (Chris):

This can be heard relatively clearly on the 2006-09-27 recording.

D--2------2-2-----2------2-------------------|
A--2--2-4-----4-2---4-2--2--2-4-5-5-4-2------|

This can be heard clear as day on the 2006-07-23 recording.
Chorus:

Then Ccome on take my Ghand
Cause Dnow is the Abeginning

CListen to what I Gsay

All three of these parts are different every time, especially Paul/Marc's in which the
I have tabbed out are followed by something to echo Rich's part, but that part is never
concrete, so feel free to make it up.
