This is a song by Switchfoot that's really fun to play on the guitar. I tabbed it based
off of listening to the track as well as watching youtube videos of Jon Foreman playing
it...so it's very accurate. :) Enjoy!

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But you sing to me over and over and over again

Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again
