Over my head (Better off Dead) Acoustic - Sum41
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Darren Ong

This is my version of "over my head" by Sum41 that they've never played in the same way.
Figure out the strumming yourself.. and find the proper bass note with where you start singing.
This song is very easy and it sounds great if you know how to adapt correctly, this tab isn't
perfect when it comes to the lyric timing but if you are good enough you will be able to
play it just fine.
