Since all the other tabs for this awesome song aren't that great, I decided to tab the
myself. The only part that's missing is the solo since I couldn't seem to get it right
I think everything I put here is right, or at least closer than the other tabs. I thank my
guitar teacher Kevin for helping me out with the intro and the verse.

Intro: For this part, you could strum each note just make the 4th string a deadnote,
in the verse. Really, I think it sounds more correct like this.

|-----------------------------------------|
|-8----4----6--8--9----1----3----4--8--6--|
|-8----5----7--8--10---1----4----5--8--7--|
|----------------------1------------------|- x2
|-6----3----5--6--8---------2----3--6--5--|
|-----------------------------------------|

Verse: It's just like the intro except that you're strumming it. Figure out the
pattern on your own.

Pre-chorus:

Play the intro, verse and pre-chorus again.

Chorus:

|-------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------44444444|

|-555-0-555-0-66666666-----------66666666-|

After the second time you play the chorus, add this on:

|--------------------|
|-4444-3333----------|
|-5555-3333----------|
|-xxxx-xxxx-66666666-|
|-3333-1111-66666666-|
|-----------66666666-|

Solo: I finally figured it out! I'm not sure it's perfect, but it sounds pretty good. 
in case you don't notice, those are all double digit numbers, so don't get confused.
