This tab should be pretty close to the album version of the song. You can either play
the riffs for the intro/verse 1 as i've tabbed out below or play the chords which i've
also put above the lyrics. The two G chords with the asterisk (*) are only played if you
are not playing the tabbed riff.
(Chords in Parenthesis are the base chords for each riff, the 'base' chords are shown below):

She's got a [C]bumper like a billboard
Covered in stickers of her fa[G]vorite band
She's got a [Am]handful of records that she turns to
When she n[F]eeds to land
Am G* (play this if not picking riff above for Verse)
She's a saturday night parade through the streets
That [F]all eyes some to see including [G]me
(Drums enter; Repeat First Riff above--Same as first part of the verse)
She carries [C]memories around like souvenirs down in her [G]pockets
She should have [Am]let some go by now but can't seem to [F]drop it
Am G* (same as G* above)
Says forgiveness ain't nothing but a lifeless tire on the
sh[F]oulder of her soul
That never [G]rolls
Chours:
For as [Am]much as she s[F]tumbled she's ru[C]nnin'
For as [Am]much as she r[F]uns she's still h[C]ere
Always [Am]hoping to f[G]ind something qu[F]icker than he[C]aven
To make the d[C]amage of her day[C]s disap[G]pear
Ju[F]st like G[G]uin[Am]ever[F]e[C]
She don't [C]hold onto nothin' new for ve[G]ry long
Yeah she [Am]writes you in as just one more tale
and the[F]n you're gone
'Cause she [Am]once fell hard 'cause she d[G]ropped her guard
And [F]no one gets to stay it's just too [G]late
(Repeat Chorus)
[Am]Just like [F]Guinever[C]e
For as m[Am]uch as she's s[F]tumbled she's r[C]unnin'
For as m[Am]uch as she r[F]uns she's still h[C]ere
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh [Am]Just like [F]Guinever[C]e
(instrumental)
