This is my first tab submission of Ben Gibbard so don't hate too much. I think 
this is pretty close to the recording but to each ear it's own. This is great song 
used in a movie that was better than expected the "Arthur" remake with Russell Brand.

as you follow its twists and its turns

'til the sun warms us both
Bridge:
    F                             C
the pavement's the drum and we're waltzing in beat
    F                          C
the rhythm of the sound of our shoes on the street
                            F      C       B/C   Am(hammer on  Bstring)
i'll take care of you if you take care of me

you say you don't want to know where this road goes
                       C          Am   Fslide to G  
cause you don't want to spoil the surprise
Am      G          F       C
we will see you're eventually
C              G      C/G
where our destination lies

where our destination lies 
That's it! Hope this helps!
