Ok, so I've wanted to learn the tab to this song,
but all I could ever find was the intro. So, I decided to tab it myself. Technically, I
this is a mix of Guitar 1 and Guitar 2 parts, but I'm a little too lazy to tab both
separately. It's pretty easy to tell which parts belong to which guitar though.

  Busy hands keep swimming they don't like swallowing
  To the abstract motor, gotta make that motor hum, gotta make it run

Forward seems like forever when ever is hand over hand over hand
The busy hands keep swimming gotta make that motor hum, get it over and done

So much for the autographs
So much for apologies
