Seashell from the album Naive
WRITTEN BY MICKY BRAUN AND DUSTIN WELCH
tab by Mike Hames
I saw the other tab on here for this and while I like it, I wanted to play in key with the song, 
so here's what I got. I think it's pretty accurate.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I do, it's a great 
song.

- To play the C walk to Am: hit the 5th string 3rd fret (top note of C) then 5th string 2nd fret 
then hit the open 5th string with hand in Am
- I haven't tabbed the solo yet, but it's mostly variations of the 2nd & 3rd fret of the bottom two 
strings from what I've got so far, will try and get it here soon
- The song sounds best if you pick the chords not strum them

Capo 4 
  
-Verse 1-
C
WE DON'T EVER REALLY TALK
                  G         F 
AND I GUESS THAT'S ALRIGHT WITH ME
C
A SEASHELL SITS ON TOP A ROCK
                  G     F              
YOU KNOW THAT'S WHERE I HIDE MY KEY

-Chorus-
C walk to Am        C
             COME THE LIGHT OF DAY
Am               G       F
I WATCH YOU TAKE YOUR THINGS AND GO
Am                G                     C
AND I CAN'T HARDLY SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT ANYMORE

-Verse 2-
C
YOU WORK HARD AND YOU GET BY
                      G    F
BUT YOU NEVER CAN QUITE GET AHEAD
C
BUT SOME HOW HERE IN MY ARMS
                     G         F                                             
YOU EASE YOUR MIND AND REST YOUR HEAD


Am      C       
COME THE LIGHT OF DAY
Am                   G      F
I WATCH YOU TAKE YOUR THINGS AND GO
Am                G                     C
AND I CAN'T HARDLY SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT ANYMORE


-Instrumental solo- (in lieu of the tab, these chords work pretty well)
C (hammering on/off pinky 1st string 3rd fret) G C, C (hammering) G F --- play this twice
C walk to Am C, Am G F, Am G C

-Bridge-
F                           C
AS I LAY HERE WHILE YOU ARE SLEEPING SOUND
               F                   C
I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER IF THIS IS THE LAST TIME
          G
YOU'LL COME AROUND


C
MAYBE I SHOULD KNOW BETTER
                 G       F
IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER AT ALL
C
I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR THE DOOR KNOB TURN
                    G        F
YOUR FOOTSTEPS SOFTLY DOWN THE HALL


Am      C
COME THE LIGHT OF DAY
Am                   G      F
I WATCH YOU TAKE YOUR THINGS AND GO
Am                G                     C
AND I CAN'T HARDLY SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT ANYMORE
C walk to Am                G                     C  
             NO I CAN'T HARDLY SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT ANYMORE

-Outro-
Played the same as the Instrumental above but add C walk to Am G C to the very end
