The previous tabs of it were pretty close but not quite on the mark. I won't post lyrics with this tab because there seems to be a big stink about it if you do. It's pretty simple, and believe it or not repetitive Use your own beat style. I only wrote it like this so it would be easy to understand the dsus4 d dsus4 d part. standard tuning Verse: d (xx0231@1) F? dsus4 d (xx0231@1) --5---5--5-5---5-5--5--5--5---5---5--5-5--5--5--5-5-5-- --7---7--7-7---6-6--6--6--6---8---8--8-8--7--7--7-7-7-- --7---7--7-7---5-5--5--5--5---7---7--7-7--7--7--7-7-7-- --7---7--7-7---7-7--7--7--7---7---7--7-7--7--7--7-7-7-- --5---5--5-5---8-8--8--8--8---5---5--5-5--5--5--5-5-5-- ---------------5-5--5--5--5---------------------------- F?
