Okay, so this is my second tab. My first one failed epically, so I hope i can do better
this one.
I'm quite surprised that theres only ONE tab out for this song, and its in the wrong
(Well it sounds right, but its definitely not how SYG actually plays it) PLUS, it's
as an intro.
It's a fairly easy song. If you're singing it can make it a little bit more difficult
the progression is a bit funny, but just PRACTICE, and I promise you'll get it.
Tuning is Eb (dropped "half a step" for the newbies out there =] )
/=Slide
So we're going to start this off with the intro. (Of course we are! It's an intro!)
You're going to want to have slight distortion on this, and I'm not going to give you
strumming, because there's way too much of it. Just listen and figure it out =]

There ya go. A few kinks in there, but I'm sure you can figure them out.
Now, as I promised, the acoustic version is no different, and it is NOT how SYG performs
song, but just a personal preference that I found sounded more mellow, and had that
tone to it.
Basically, all you are doing is playing the song as tabbed above, but adding the B and e
playing them open the whole time. It sounds better if you play it slower, so don't
complaining to me telling me you played this song full speed and it "didn't sound right".
I'll tab it out for you in case you don't understand what I'm going for here.
