Awesome song, and I know it's old and my tabs are a **bit** late, but better
late than never, eh? :)

++Update 11 December 2010: Sorry, I was way off with the last tab.
Turns out it's actually in Drop D (or a tone down, but this tab is in
drop D) which is why most of it sound so wrong! Anyway, all apologies to
anyone I irritated with the last awful tab. I'm doing this on my electric
now, and it's definitely a hell of a lot closer now. Thanks!
P.S. There are only 2 guitars because they double track, so
I will have re-written some of the parts so that they are only played
on one guitar.++

Anyway, enjoy!
Please rate and comment! :D

Solo - Apologies, the whole thing is wrong, because I tabbed it in
standard tuning on a badly acoustic guitar.
I will re-tab it ASAP, but I know that it starts
with a 13b15 on the B string ;)
