NOTES: Play this with your guitar tuned down a step, into Eb, the other tabs for this song
dont do it, but if you listen to the CD then this will match that version.
This is an excellent song by an excellent band. The other tabs of this song I tried to play
were good, but in the wrong key and used overly complicated fingering. The Bm chord in this
song was quite hard to play the way the other tabs told you to, this way is a lot easier!
Feel free to correct my mistakes, I'm new to actually writing tabs down, and my chord
positions may be a little off, but the letters should be ok.
