|-0--   			|-0--3---|-0?  however you like.)
|----   			|--------|----

Note: I had two tabs for this song for this song and found that both had a few
errors in either the ?verse? or the ?Chorus? and some strange accompaniment that
just didn?t seem to flow with it. (These are not really a distinct ?verse? 
or ?chorus? I?m just calling them that for explanation purposes). Anyway, I did my 
best to re-tab it and remove the accompaniment and fix the errors. I?ve listened to 
3 versions of the song and played through a few times to make sure everything 
sounds right. (Every version changes it up a little. You can play either the verse, 
or the chorus, or both multiple times and switch back and forth.) 


OK. Here?s the order: (This seems to be the most common.)

INTRO (sorry not finished yet. Coming soon)
VERSE (2x)
CHORUS
TRANSITION CHORD
VERSE (1x or 2x)
CHORUS
ENDING
