Tabbed by: Fred Hatfull Tuning: Standard (EADGBe) Notes: This is a great, simple song. I've not taken the time to tab a lot of the quiet (such as the intro) or other parts that take a secondary role to the piano. I would enjoy some input on this and some assistance, but only if it's by the community. Also, I feel the verse could use some input because I'm not sure it's 100% correct. The basics are there though. Enjoy! Amp settings (if desired): I find it's best to play this song with your drive set to up a little bit when you strike the strings hard, but otherwise pretty smooth on the quieter parts. Minimal distortion.
