Song: Saddest Story Ever Told (Composed by Benjamin Gibbard [Magnetic Fields Cover])
Tuning: Standard
I did my best to convert this to and acoustic chord version...some of them I just played what sounded
best. If you've heard Ben sing this I am hopeful that this will sound close enough..I think it sounds
great. If you come up with anything that sounds better feel free to post your corrected tab...I have
only been playing guitar for about a month now so I am not the best at figuring out guitar chords.

Those days are gone You and I were young those summer nights

Once upon a time we fell in love or at least that's what you said
You say I can find someone else but I just wish I was dead
