Letters to God Box Car Racer
This song is fairly simple. The previous tabs are partially correct.
Perhaps I am wrong, but this version sounds good to me.

Listen for rhythm
An x represents where you strum without actually plaucking the

Now the Easy part
Once the distortion kicks in, the 'complex' chords are replaced
with simple bar chords.
so the verse turns into
[E5] [E5] [E5] [Gb5] [G5] [G5] [G5]
And the Chorus turns into
[E5] [E5] [E5] [C5] [C5] [C5] [G5] [G5] [G5] [A5] [A5] [A5]
CHORDS
