***I tabbed the original version of this song, the version that appears on
the actual CD is slightly different (there's a solo). I may add the solo 
later, but just keep in mind that this is the original version. Thanks***

Tuning: D Standard (D,G,C,F,A,D)

Notes: Pretty simple song, the bridge is a bit tricky with the timing, but
other than that, it's a fun song to play.
