This song is from Antifogmatic, Punch Brothers' second studio album. This is the penultimate song
on the album. 
This song is very confusing at first but once you get the weird chord progressions, 
you're set for the whole of the song.
You just have to be able to play lots of barre chords! You can play them however you 
like but I'll tab them how I do it.
It's probably not the most efficient but find what's right for you in terms of the 
chords and their positions.
Read through and look over this tab before and work out how to play it bit by bit then 
attempt the whole song.
