Band: American Hi-Fi
Song: Flavor of the Weak (Acoustic)
Tuning: standard EADGBE (Capo on the 1st Fret)

Alright, I could never find a transcription of the acoustic version of this
song, so I've finally gotten fed up enough to tab it myself, b/c I think
it's an even better song unplugged.  I'm basing this off the '01 Live Radio
version, but I've tried to combine Stacy's Rhythm part and Jamie's lead part
into a piece for a solo acoustic guitar, so the song's been changed around a
little.  All notes are relative to capo, except for the solo. Enjoy...
