Hey y'all ;)
Awesome song, and I know it's old and my tabs are a **bit** late, but better
late than never, eh? :)
A side note: I tabbed this on a steel-string acoustic,
so some of the effects I say to use might be wrong-ish.
Also, I think it's mostly right, except for the some of the solo and the
chorus sounds wrong-ish, but it sounded wrong-er any other way that I
played it.

Anyway, enjoy!
Please rate and comment! :D

Well, that's it :) I think the second last power chord is off, but that's
about as close as I could get it to sound.

Please rate and comment!! :)
