I Miss You Guitar Tablature
Here is my tabbed version of "I Miss You"
It's very difficult to hear the acoustic guitar in this song because of all the other stuff that was put on top of it during mixing.  
It kind of sounds like there are two acoustic guitar recordings layered on top of each other during the verses, and maybe even three on the choruses.
I will post both of my tabbed versions of the song....one with a single guitar....and another with the other guitar parts that might be possible.

When I tabbed this, I used a video off of Blink 182's website.  It is a video of them recording the song and you can hear the acoustic guitar better since it plays without the extra stuff that was put on top for the final album version.  It starts at the end...somewhere around 2:42.  
Here is the exact link: http://www.blink182.com/downloads/VIDEO.asp?assetid=204803&count=5&artistid=4&title=EXTRA+LONG+VIDEO%21%21%21
It is the one named “NeW SoNG & MoRE!!!!”
I believe you have to be registered and logged in to view the clip.

*Notes:
- The SECOND GUITAR part: Is basically the same chord played throughout the whole song.  I'm not sure if I'm hearing this or not on the actual album.  It can fit in nice if you decide to record the song yourself.
- The THIRD GUITAR part:  It just sounds neat if you're recording or if you're jamming along with a friend or if you decide to record the song yourself.
- I tabbed two parts for the last three chords of the chorus.  Both sounds okay but I think the first one might sound better.

**You might have to paste this into notepad in order to have the best viewing.
