This is prety much a plagarized version of the previous tab for this song.  That guy did
good job and it was much appreciated.

The only alteration here was that I changed a chord in the second line of each verse.  
I put it in a new key which should make it easier to play on guitar or piano while 
the vocals...just a n alternative version for untalented jerks like myself.
