Since there was already a part in the original version in which you required two guitars, I figured i would rewrite this whole song as a duo. I have not taken out or added much, only in a few parts in which it doesn't sound good without a vocal. This version is more for just guitar then it is for being combined with vocal/drums/bass. I also changed some notes to a different string to make it easier to read. Although you now require a partner to play it, it makes it easy on both of you. Just make sure you practice a lot, so you play in sync. Enjoy ;) ~This is also a printer friendly tab, which is why there are spaces at some wierd spots.~ Guitar 1: Melody &Chords Guitar 2: Rhythm & Backup Guitar 1:
