Ok, i know this song has been tabbed and there are pretty good versions of it,
but i wanted to perfect. it for those people out there who really want to play
the song as the band does it, i made this tab by checking other versions of this
song (thx to anyone who tabbed it before) and watching a live performance at
Music Withour Borders, just look it up in Kazaa or whatever, the camera doesnt
show much what theyre playing but it helped me in some parts, but this is how i
play this song so im not saying its how they do it
