NOTE: There Are A Lot Of 1/4 Bends, So If I Just Put 'b' (eg 5b), Just Bend A Quarter Step. Otherwise, I'll Say Which Note To Bend To. NOTE: I'm Gonna Tab The Arpeggios In The Intro Only As That Takes Too Damn Long. After That, I'm Just Giving Chords. You Can See From The Intro The Sort Of Stuff He Does.
