Just want to say...this is by far my favorite cover of this song. If you want a different experence with the song...then I would recommend increasing the playback speed to 1.25. Sounds amazing either way.
I love this man. Saw him play at house of blues in Houston just last week and it blew my mind. He had a band which was a great complement but honestly could have put in the whole show alone. He inspired me to also cover this song. I just posted it on my channel if anyone is interested in checking it out!
David Bazan plays it in standard tuning with capo on 1. Something like G C Am D D7 during the verse and then C D G Em Bm C D G during the following part I believe.
@Eric Na, The chords sounds from ear like an Am, G, Em, and two barr chords for strumming(or possibly a C chord considering the capo position). then just look at the video to grasp how he plays. If you really wanna figure it out just listen and try to duplicate it.
You used to feel like a smoker shivering in the cold Waiting outside the bar 'til the opener's over But now you feel like a drinker 20 days off the sauce Down at the liquor store trying to call your sponsor You used to feel like the forest fire burning, But now you feel like a child throwing tantrums for your turn You used to sound like a prophet Everyone wanted to know How you could tell the truth without losing that soft glow But now you feel like a salesman closing another deal Or some d

Bazan does it better. One of the things that makes Davids music so beautiful is that it is straight-forward, stripped down and honest. This guys voice is way to kitschy to do the song any justice. Even the tuning is just too much. I'm sure he's great playing his own music but it's just too much for a Bazan song.
But not in the way I'm saying he does it no justice. He didn't say "this tuning is way too intricate and and pointless my voice is too forced to do this song any justice". Again, it may work for his own music but it's an ill fit for a Bazan song.
Nah i just appreciate this artist, and the fact he introduced me to David bazan through his cover. note - COVER. not "impersonation" COVER. Cover means in your own style. Good day :)

Great comment. It goes to show the kind of respect he has for David. Both are amazing in my mind. Really like this cover

NO apology required. I like both versions immensely.

So simple and so sensible. Very nice
If I could sum up what the definition of beautiful music is with a video, I'd take someone here. This is what it's all about.
i could listen to this on repeat for hours...
one of the best last lines of a song ever if that makes sense..
I love the music he makes but this. this gives him cool points from me.
It's awesome to know that awesome artists listen to other awesome artists.
So so so sooo beautiful, I can't even
always reminds me of summer nights sitting on the dock listening to Taighe play, miss you brother now and forever.
So good
That last line is a killer
Stunning!
Son this is beautiful

Well, I think it's impossible to do Bazan justice, but I love that he covered this...very enjoyable.

I couldn't have dreamed this.
Que buena canción...

this cover is better than the original
I love him, and I love this song so much. First song I ever heard that mentions an AA sponsor.

Yeah! Incredible. I love this song. I still prefer the original, but I love TTMOE, and this is just awesome.

Good day :)
Agreed.
The Finley THIS.
You used to feel like a smoker
Shivering in the cold
Waiting outside the bar
Till the opener's over
But now you feel like a drinker
Twenty days off the sauce
Down at the liquor store
Trying to call your sponsor
You used to feel like the forest fire burning
But now you feel like a child
Throwing tantrums for your turn
You used to sound like a prophet
And everyone wanted to know
How you could tell the truth
Without losing that soft glow
But now you feel like a salesman
Closing another deal
Or some drunk ship captain
Raging after the…
