NOTE: I wanted to keep this song simple as far as chords are concerned as some
could have been named using "slash" chords. However, I wanted evryone from
beginners to advanced to be able to use this tab. Those of you more advanced
can call them whatever you want. Also if there were 2 guitars one could also
play the Intro riff for emphasis. Please keeep this in mind when playing and
rating this tab. Thanks.
