I just didn't like the fact that it was drop D and frankly it doesn't have to be (why bother changing the tuning on the guitar when it's not nessecary) There were some parts that were writen incorrectly (as I could tell from the amazing judith video watching Billy play this song) And Yes Billy does use a metal slide.. but I don't have one so I left that part alone. I left the original tab at the bottom to refer to (It might be right.. It's just that it didn't sound right to me.) Oh and People.. I've noticed a complete lack of APC tabs on the net.. lets get some going!
