Death Cab For Cutie - Steadier Footing Acoustic guitar tab

Artist: Death Cab for Cutie

Song: Steadier Footing

Tabbed by: lackofcolour

This is based on Ben's solo acoustic performance. Unlike the album version, he strums

chords consistently throughout the song. I wasn't sure of some of the chord names, so I

made some of them up. I'm not 100% about if the B* and E2 chords are correct. Thanks for looking!

You could also do the low notes as slides: 9s12 and 12s7. At the end of the line where

see the B, continue playing B into the next line.

B G#m E B

it's gotten late and now I want to be alone

G#m E B

all of our friends were here, they all have gone home

B* E2*

and here I sit on the front porch

c#m E* B

watching the drunks stumble forth into the night

G#m E B

you gave me a heart attack, I did not see you there

G#m E B

I thought you had dissappeared so early away from here

B* E2*

and this is the chance I never got

C#m E*

to make a move, but we just talk about

*Fill

the people we've met in the last five years

*Fill

and will we remember them in ten more

I let you bum a smoke, you quit this winter past
