Blue Eyes

This is the transcription of "Blue Eyes" (featured in Garden State, on Scrubs, and numerous other places) that Cary Brothers sent me via e-mail in 2004 when the song was relatively new. I e-mailed him on the site, hoping someone might get back to me with where I could find the tab.  Little did I know that Cary himself would write me back and tab it out personally! 
Standard tuning, no capo. I pasted exactly what he sent me, but I should clarify that "E/B" (from my interpretation) is not a chord - it's denoting this main riff: 

   E (strum)   C#m    B 

The riff sounds sweet and is easy to get used to with a little practice.  Good luck! 
BLUE EYES CHORDS  

INTRO/MAIN RIFF: 

E, then hammer on from E note (5 th string, 7th fret) to F# note (5th string, 9th fret) and back to the E note, all without muting the open E up top (6 th string), then back to chords – B C#m B (x2) – this is played through verses and Choruses 

E/B-C#m/B (x4) 

wish enough, wise man'll tell you a lie 
window broke, torn up screens 
who'd have thought that you'd dream 
of a single tragic scene  

PRE-Chorus: 

A C#m 
i just wanna sing a song with you 
A B 
i just want to take it off of you 

Chorus 

E/B-C#m/B (x4) 

cause blue eyes 
you are all that i need 
cause blue eyes 
you're the sweet to my mean 

E/B-C#m/B (x4) 

fess it up, dot on the palm of your hand 
i can help you to stand 
saved it  for this dance 
tell me all the things you can 

A/C#m/A/B 

i just wanna sing a song with you 
i just wanna be the one that's true 

E/B-C#m/B (x4) 

cause blue eyes 
you’re the secret I keep 
cause blue eyes 

F#m A 
all the lights on and you are alive 
E B 
but you can't point the way to your heart 
F#m A 
so sublime, when the stars are aligned 
E 
but you don't know 
C#m B 
you don't know the greatness you are 

E/B-C#m/B (x4) 

cause blue eyes 
you are destiny's scene 
cause blue eyes 
i just wanna be the one 

A C#m A B 

i just wanna sing a song with you 
i just wanna get it on with you 

E/B-C#m/B (and repeat) 

cause blue eyes 
you’re the secret I keep 
cause blue eyes 
i just wanna sing a song with you 
i just wanna sing a song with you 
i just wanna sing a song with you...
