                             We Were Able - Nick Urb
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: August Axinder

Tuning: E A D G# B e
Capo: 2nd fret for album version, 1st fret for youtube version.

Tabs are relative to the capo

I find this easiest to play if you pluck the strings with your fingers and
not use a pick.

The song is built on 3 parts, the part he plays throughout the verses,
the part he plays twice in the intro as well as a filler in the verses,
you should be able to hear where he plays this, as well as the chorus.

MAIN PART
e|--------0---------------0---------------0---------------0------------------|
B|------0-----0---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0---0----------|
G|----0---------0-----0---------0-----0---------0-----0---------0------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--4---------------2---------------0---------------2------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

END OF INTRO, FILLER PART
e|--------0h2-------------2p0-------------0---------------4------------------|
B|------0-----0---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0---0----------|
G|----0---------0-----0---------0-----0---------0-----0---------0------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--4---------------2---------------0---------------2------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

During this filler part, when you play the last set of plucks, sometimes he
plays an open string instead of fretting it on the 4th fret. This is
easily heard though.

CHORUS
e|--------0-------4-------0---------------0-------4-------0------------------|
B|------0-------0-------0-----0---0-----0-------0-------0-----0---0----------|
G|----0-------0-------0---------0-----0-------0-------0---------0------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--0------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------4----------------------------------------|

The chorus part is played once, then he plays the main part, then the chorus
again.  He sometimes ends the chorus part with sort of picking the 
A, G#, B and e string together with A fretted on the 2nd fret and the rest
open.

You have to listen to the song to figure out when he plays which part when,
unless you want me to tab out the whole thing with everything in order, in
which case I'll fix that for you!
