The Killers - Smile Like You Mean It Tab

Can't play "Smile Like You Mean It"? Improve your playing via easy step-by-step video lessons!

As no one else had tabbed this song, I thought I would give it a go.
I am 100% sure everything is correct. I have tabbed the 3 guitars for this song. Guitar
is the main one tabbed, Guitar 2 plays the chords throughout the song and Guitar plays a
Small build up to the chorus later in the song. Enjoy.
