Ok this is like the coolest song ever. It rocks my face off especially
the screaming outro. Well this is an accurate tab but if you have any
questions or comments email me at guitarvibe55@yahoo.com alright? thanks
First verse (acoustic part):
Bm Bm/G D A (4X)
First verse (electric part) and all other verses: just use some basic
strum pattern
e-------------------- B-------------------- G--4---------7------- D--4----5----7----7-- A--2----5----5----7-- E-------3---------5--
[B5] [G5] [D5] [A5]
At the end of the verse hold out the A5 for another measure
Chorus: the song changes from 4/4 to 6/8 time here so its a tricky
transition so i put how to count it off above the tab to match the
strum pattern
