 This is the horn part tabbed for guitar. It’s all just on the
 high e string.

One  more day down, Everybody  has those days
Where  one soft sweet song is just  enough to clear my head
 In between "head" and the chord change is this on horns:
:3-3-3-1-1-1-1-2-3
Fall  on real life, (fall  on real life)
Is  anybody left here sane?
And  we’ll slide on over,  the accept fate
 Man it’s bound to be a powerful thing
And  if it’s just that you’re weak,  can we talk about it?
It’s  gettin so damn creepy  just nursing this
Ghost  of a chance
 The fiction, the romance, and the Technicolor  dreams
 Black and white people
One  boy headstrong
He  thinks everything here is just plain
He’s  pushed down so hard  you can hear him start to sink
And  it’s one last round  of this petty conversation
 You hold on boy, cuz you won’t go  down like this
 You just roll on over and  lay down till it’s more that you  can take
 same as last time

 That little guitar thing in between solo and next verse:
e----3--------------------

G--------0---------------
So  one more day down, everybody’s  changing
One  soft sweet song is just  enough to clear my....
 My head
 same as last time
 Just switch between G and C, it’s kinda confusing
