Despite the insane drumming(Eric Slick?) at the back end of this song, I think you can rock this one out on the acoustic if you get the strumming down, especially the double time part. I tried to nail the chord changes on the lyrics but this editor kinda sucks. Maybe my first and last guitar tab! Feel free to contact me at padzeke@me.com.
