Only Hope (ver 8) by Switchfoot
This is how Jon plays Only Hope live:
Chords for the verses (he picks through them):
(numbers with no parentheses = frets
numbers in parentheses = fingers...
ex: --(3)7-- means your 3rd finger goes on the 7th fret)
e|-------------------------------(4)3---(4)3---(4)3---------------|
b|------------0------------------(3)3---(3)3---(3)3------0--------|
g|--(4)7---(2)4---------------------0------0------0---(4)4--------|
d|--(1)5---(4)5---(1)7----(3)4---(1)2------0---(1)2---(3)4--------|
a|--(3)7---(3)5---(4)10---(1)2---(2)3---(1)2---(2)3---(1)2--------|
e|---------(1)3---(1)7-------0----------(2)3-------------0--------|

it....you dont always hit the notes exactly like i typed them. Check out the live
