Yellowcard - When We're Old Men
I'm not too sure if this is a regional extra on some Lights and Sounds CDS but you can
it on iTunes as I did. I'm pretty sure that all of the tab with the exception of Part 4
100%. The chords played sound different each time I listen so I just went for a basic
which you can change if you find something you think sounds better. Entirely up to
guitarist!
I'll put the sections and then type the order in which they go.
Enjoy! =)

Part 3 - Bridge
Violins play in the background here but I didn't bother to tab them for
guitar, again entirely optional if you want a second guitarist to play
the notes the violin does.

Part 4 - Outro
It's basically alternate picking of the E5, D5, C#5, B5 and A5 chords
with the e and b strings also strummed from what I can tell (Don't trust
me for the names of the chords by the way)
The way I've played the D5 here (x59700) is just the way I like to play
that chord, it can just as easily be replaced by (x57700)
You'll get the hang of it the more you play it, I'm not 100% sure about
this part yet so any comments would be appreciated.
