-strum pattern is shown for Intro & Verses (same for both): d=down, u=up -chords are written in for only one verse to avoid tab looking cluttered -for harmonics, fret the note indicated, then play harmonic an octave (12 frets) up from that note -I don't know the name of the second to last chord in the Chorus - I put the notes (F,B,D) into a chord finder and it came out as F flat5 6th (no 3rd), so that's what I'll call it. It's played like this: EADGBE xxx431 -bar lines indicate measures of 4/4 time -song is in A Major, except for guitar solo section which is in D (solo is in D Major) ^...bend (w=whole step) /...slide up h...hammer on \...slide down p...pulloff x...muted note r...release bend ~...vibrato ..harmonic =...hold note (This file is the transcriber's own work and represents their interpretation of the song.)
