Ok, this is my first tab, so I chose a simple song. I did it in Word so give me a break.
Pretty cool song though  
** I recommend playing the G and F the way that is shown. It gives it more fullness.
You can play them however you like but a G major won't sound to spiffy in this song.**

**Tuning is in Standard EADGBE**
