:: Sometimes Jacks Rule the Realm :: 
Artist: 311
Album: Evolver
Tabbed by Kiki : 7/24/04 

~!!~ Ok I borrowed most of this song from a plethora of other tabsites, and I
noticed they were all pretty much identical, only they were missing the *sweet*
ending that comes on about a minute after the actual song ends. I'm not sure if
most people are aware of it but you probably are. I won't take credit for tabbing
all the hard stuff like the solo, I just did the ending, but i figured since this
song wasn't posted yet that it deserved to be cuz it is AMAZIng. So good luck,
it's not too hard! :)
