Grandaddy - AM 180 guitar tab
#
Song: AM 180
Band: Grandaddy
Tab by: Christopher Dineen (superflypimpguy_2000@yahoo.com)
Tuning: standard
Notes: I've noticed the lack of Grandaddy guitar tabs on the net so I thought i'd give am 180 a bash.
It's also my first tab so don't start harassing me if you think it's crap.
Mad keyboard noises arranged for guitar:

You'll have to listen pretty hard to make all of this out (but the bends should
be easy to hear so use them as a guide for the rest). If you can't hear
it and don't have a clue, then just play random notes in the 14 fret followed
by the quick bend and it should sound okay.
The singing goes on for a bit.
Just after you hear:
"...and take on whatever together"
Something like this is played.
