Hey guys, this is my tab for this song, and I think it sounds pretty good. All 
of the rhythm parts are in here, but I didn't tab out the solo. Hopefully 
everything here is accurate, and that you guys find it to be helpful! If you 
have any comments, questions, or corrections to point out, please feel free 
to leave a message here, or to send me an email! :D

[Note: the chords in the parentheses are 
somewhat faint, and a little hard to hear 
in the song. I consider them to be "optional", 
and don't always play them.]
