Tonight I Will Retire  Damien Jurado

Alright, Damien finger picks through this entire song, and the pattern that he
does raises the difficulty level to intermediate, I think. I tabbed this by ear
from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIOHSrZPitI
I'm 99% sure that everything here is correct. Listen to the song to figure out the
picking/strumming pattern. Pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
Also, this is probably the best suicide song I've ever heard.
