Tabbed by: yeah27

This tune has lots of feeling, good melody and it's good practise for technique.
For the exact rhythm refer to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2NSKgvBzmg

Tuning: standard

There is plenty of vibrato, to give an idea i add to the first line 
and i add some here and there but just because it ain't there doesn't mean it ain't there :) 

The original is more staccato, you could get a midi file for FL Studio and play it idk 
something like 10 to 20 bpm slower.


chords for piano intro, it's some good fun to just play the bass in 1/8 to it: 

g,D7  g,D7   g,F,Bb,F,D7,g,c, D7 for a while   then g,D7,g 


         vib                  vib                  vib              slight vib after tone rang
