Tabbed by: Alejandro D'Brot
alexd@terra.com.pe
p= pull-off
h= hammer-on
~= vibrato (manual)
Tuning: Standard (Acoustic Guitar)
NOTE: This isn't the semi-acoustic song out on the radio, it's just a cool way to play it on
an acoustic guitar without having to tune it to Low C. I know it's a little hard to
play, but it is an awesome song. .
