Fair play to you for tabbing out the 3 guitars for this song. I'm struggling to try and actually play the intro and verses properly on my 6-string acoustic, perhaps a total lack of skill, but more likely just lack of practicing.

I've heard instrumental guitar versions of this song, where there is a guitar playing the vocals, and it sounds REALLY cool, if anybody at all has heard it, and has tabs, or could work a guitar tablature for the vocals of this song, please post it on this site, www.thetabworld.com, or e-mail it to paul@myrem.com, thanks!
