Tuning: Drop D

Okay, ive been playing this a long time now, pretty sure its 100% correct.
Awesome song. If you have any questions email me. Enjoy!

PLEASE NOTE: Do not follow this tabs strumming exactly. I have put it so
 the change of notes is underneath the words that are sung. Please listen
 to the song for correct strumming patterns
