Great fun to play; I tried tabbing it Guitar Pro but the timing was too fiddly to work out. If you're a big fan of GP files me, sorry, I'm sure someone will do a nice one in due course. The (s18) in the last measure is, probably, a whammy pedal. But if like me you don't one, I guess either do what I tabbed or ignore it :) I think this solo is played by Travis, though I'm only going on an acoustic demo I saw. ----- Tabbed by Papaledoupe (matt[AT]kitserve.org.uk) 04/08/2010
