++Check out my tabs of 'Come Again' and 'Waste My Time' by BCS! ;)++

=====================
*Backround Info*
There are at least two different recordings of this song. One is on the
album "Concrete Waves" and appeared in the game Tony Hawk's Underground
(this is the more well-known version). The other is on the album
"74 More Minutes Underground" (a multi-artist album distributed by Northeast
Records), and is slightly longer with a number of small differences.

I'll be tabbing the version from Concrete Waves.
=====================


This is probably my favourite song :D so chances are I'll be updating this
tab occasionally :)


Nonetheless, Enjoy!

Don't forget to rate and comment! Corrections are also much appreciated! :D
