Lay Me Down by The Boxer Rebellion
Lay Me Down
listen to the rhythm to be sure. Two guitars over the verses. One (Riff 1) sounds like a load of delay and general effects, the other(Riff 2) is fairly clean if
not acoustic

There's an acoustic guitar under there somewhere. Not sure exactly
what it's playing but these work, rhythm is hard to pick out but
they follow the melody:
e|-------|
B|-------|
G|-7--6--|
D|-7--6--|
A|-5--4--|
E|-------|
One more verse and chorus which leads into the minute or so with
Nathan repeating, "Laaaaay Meeeeee Doooooown". The rhythm is tricky
but give it a listen and it should be clear
e|------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-7-7-7-7--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-9-9-9-5-5-5-5-5-5-|(*)

* Finish on this note leading into the outro:
This part is two guitars but I'll put it on the same tab, the notes
on the B an e strings are one guitar and the others are the other
guitar funnily enough. I'm not entirely sure about the notes on the
lower strings but its the ebst I could pick out after a good while
trying

Do you know me, or even see,
that my aggrivations,
get the best of me.
And i'm tired of your side,
which should be so easy,
And when it comes to pass, my dear,
will you get me out of here.
I wish you knew me, enough to care,
that my fustrations,
can go nowhere.
And i'm tired of your side,
which should be so easy,
And when it comes to pass, my dear,
will you get me out of here.
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
Lay me down...
