Tab By: Greg van Heeswijk I did this tab while I was ill, I couldn't go to school, but I could play my guitar ;) I'm pretty sure its 100%. I have included the lyrics at the bottom, and throughout the song ( it really annoys me when people do tabs and don't include the lyrics so that you don't know when a certain bit happens). This is a well easy song to tab, and should be a well easy song to learn. The bits in brackets are the bits that are sung in the back ground, or they are notes by me. There are very few notes from me and there are few technical guitar things (eg. Slides) This is a good song for beginners I hope, because I have laid it out for beginners and its is easy to play, it sounds 'awesome' too so....yay! It is drop D tuning which is when you tune your bottom 'E' down to D: e B G D A (E) - TURNS INTO D To do this you can buy a tuner and do it, or by ear both are easy.
