This is the vocal break/solo that Elliott Smith plays in the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jNrFMdPDk8). Its helpful to learn if you are only playing with one guitar. I did the best I could to make this tab by ear but there are a few imperfections as Elliott does a lot of improvisation. Whenever you see a chord in the tab you have to listen to the video to hear the strumming pattern (he usually plays the base note between strums).
