Hello Again (Acoustic)
This is an acoustic version I've worked out for Hello Again. I'm fairly certain there isn't a real
acoustic version that the band plays, but if there IS, this isn't it. I've pretty much put the
parts of both guitars and some of the keyboard all into one guitar. It uses a lot of finger picking, 
but it's still in drop D, and seems pretty accurate. If you can play it while singing, 
more power to you, cause I haven't been able to pull that off yet. Also, a lot of credit is due to
the guys who made the other tabs, because a lot of this is based on theirs. 

Tuning: Drop D

Figure out your own strumming pattern, cause you're not gonna be able to read mine. I'll put how many beats you spend on each chord

Bridge
I can't figure out much of the keyboard part here, so it's mostly just the powerchords. Again, figure your own strumming.
All the chords go for equal length here.
