Tuning: tuned down half a step
This is a good song,but it's relatively unknown for the most part. I know you can
it from itunes though. I'm nearly 100% sure that the intro lead guitar is correct and fairly
the solo is too, but not too certain about the chords, especially the intro and verses
hard to hear). I'm not too good at playing by ear, but I did the best I can.
this tab will bring some recognition to the song and someone out there can post a
version.
As far as the verses and background guitar in the intro go I'm pretty sure I have the
right, but just not tabbed how he actually plays it. He does a bunch of different little
and stuff I can't pick up.

That's it. hopefully this helps you guys, and hopefully someone can make a truly correct
cause the guitar on the verses sounds pretty awesome.
