Nervous Kids - Tigers Jaw

Learned this song by ear, really really excited for the new record.
This song uses a lot of string blocking which can be kinda tricky but it's the correct 
way to play it.

For those who are new to tabs:
s = slide (2s-7 means pluck the 2 and slide up to the next chord)
h = hammer on (12-h14 means pluck 12 hammer on to 14)
p = pull off (12p-10 means pull off of 12 with your other finger already on 10)
~ = ring out

Intro Chords  (0:00):

For this intro bit let the last chord ring out.
I can't tell if they're playing the A as a power chord or not.
Let the last chord ring out. Played once

Make sure you block every string it says to, some chords will sound very wrong with an 
extra note
