Not being a learned musician, I'm afraid you'll have to bear with me when it comes to bars and note lengths. Taking cues from the song itself will definitely help. 1ST VERSE G|------------|----------|------------|---------------- D|--7--7--5-4-|--5-------|--7--7--5-7-|--5------------- A|------------|-------5--|------------|-------5-------- E|------------|----------|------------|---------------- G|------------|----------|------------|---------|-7---- D|--7--7--5-4-|--5-------|--7--7--5-7-|--5------|---5-- A|------------|-------5--|------------|---------|------ E|------------|----------|------------|---------|------ I've found this sounds better when played as two note chords.

IT'S MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT A TAB SO I HOPE YOU GET SOMETHING OUT OF IT. #----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE---------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.
