Kiss the Bottle
Etc.
Words and Music by Blake Schwarzenbach
This sounds about right. The other tab floating around pretty much has everything right
wise. This is just my interpretation of how the intro goes, and what not. Strumming
isn't shown but with what I put, you should get the idea.

NOTE: In a live version of the song I have, Blake replaces every other "2" with a "4" on
when the riff gets into the the "0-2-0" repitition.
