WHY CANT PEOPLE TAB SUCH AN EASY SONG LIKE THIS?!?!?!?!?!!
I played this song live with the variations and I rocked!!
If you have any comments or complaints, email them to me at:
    simeon_oz@yahoo.com
Also try using a pick as it will sound exactly the same as
in the actual song- but then it might be a bit harder to
play the variations (if you're willing to)

Wait 00:20 while there is no bass or drums then
kick in with the Intro

* If you're playing the extra variations in the brackets (like how they
  play it live) then where I have written the (2h4) is only to
  replace the B, then play it fast, then pull on E really
  hard so it rings really loud.

Symbols

  x  = mute string (make sure it doesn't make any sound)
  /  = slide up
  \  = slide down
  :  = let the note ring (let it go so it keeps making sound)
  h  = hammer on (7h9 means play the 7th fret, and as the note is playing, hit
       the 9th fret)
  p  = pull off (10p8 means play the 10th fret, then as the note is playing,
       pull off your finger so it goes to the 8th fret)

Thanks people!! Happy playing!!
