this is a great tab, and I am not saying that cause you said to. I am just learning to play, and it was simple and strait foward. Thanks for making a great tab


Yoke Daddy December 20, 2003, 3:12 

Nice tab, but i used Dm instead of D#. And i used G# instead of Ab5. i might be wrong, but it's worth a try


liv January 1, 2004, 19:26

devin February 28, 2004, 23:38 

wheres the C#m? try playin the first line of the verse as follows: C#m A E whatever it is now sounds like shit


Dave Rod March 18, 2004, 0:25 

this tab is really weird, i had to change some stuff to make it sound well, but is a good tab, keep working HARD.


matt April 26, 2004, 18:31 

i love the tab it's simple and correct for a great song, however i agree with whoever said its C#m and before the A i play a G#m at the end of the 4th bar so its C#m, (G#m), A E i hope this helps people


McCool May 3, 2004, 1:11

Lord Wolfgang August 6, 2005, 20:09 

You should play am instead of A in the Verse.
That's what I thought when you play the whole song:
Verse: c#m E am E am E
Little Bridge: A
Chorus: E A...
And the second part of the melody begins on the d-string like he said.


adam November 22, 2005, 17:44
