"Breakout"
This is my first tab.  
I couldn't match the other tab to the tune
so I had a go myself. 
I think the verse and hook are alright. 
Not too sure sure about the chorus, but that's what the bassline is,
so I just followed it from that and it sounds ok.  
You can fingerpick the verse with the chords.
EmIt just DhappendC  D  
EmSo what?
But they're all lauEmghingC  D  C  
EmWhat's up?
[Hook]
Why the teEmars     Dhave no CfearD

All you can be is just you cause
You're real not the plastic type.
But reality sets and
You're stuck in this plastic life.

We are here for you
But I know how you feel, I know how you feel
When nothing cares.
[Chorus]
[Break out]
Hey!
Shit happens, hey, just blow it off, whooo,
Man, don't it make you feel rage, rage, yeah
Hey!
Shit happens, u-uh, just blow it off, whooo,
Man, don't it make you feel rage ,rage ,yeah
Just aslong we got the same thing in our veins,
You and I ,we are both the same
I bail you out and show you what you see
'bout love, N*E*R*D, peace
You get the idea.
Let me know for any improvements, because it's not perfect, cheers
