Thanks so much Woodshed! All of your chords/tabs are absolutely fantastic!

Also Badger Dash, I was there too! And I got him and about half of the band to sign my ukulele afterwards, it was so brilliant!!! :D I think I may have creeped him out a bit though…I kind of assaulted him, haha.

You can see how he plays the chords in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQg6fOBaXTU

Notice he plays the first string on the first fret for the last 3 chords.

I was at this show. “East Harlem” is an instant classic and I can’t wait to learn it.

Hey, great tab, but I think on the last 3 chords you should be playing the first string on the first fret, not the third. I don’t know the chord names but it sounds better. Plus, in an interview on youtube, Zach is playing this song on what looks to be a fluke and he doesn’t have his pinky finger down on the 3rd fret. I’ll try to transcribe the last 3 chords somehow in this box.
