This is my first tab, so here goes :)
If anyone has any questions, do not hesitate to email me on asblewden@gmail.com. I am
sure the song is accurate, I tabbed it just by listening through over and over, though
might be a few issues with a bit of the solo, say if you think there is (it might be ok :P)
I decided to tab this because I realised there wasn't a version of it on the site yet,
of course it’s a great song. Don’t be harsh, it took a few hours to do, and remember
are all my own ideas, there are no other tabs yet to get tips off :D
This is tabbed for the lead guitar, I think there might be another, but this is the main
I put the lyrics in so it’s easier to follow.
Here it is, enjoy:

Note: For the bit above just play it by ear because it’s easy to pick up. Basically
pick the 6th fret on the B string and hit the 8th and 9th frets from time to time. He
much hits the 8th and 9th frets randomly.
After a bit he does:
