Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
I wrote this tab when I was 14, and I just modified it now (almost 10 years later) because it was admittedly
pretty erroneous. Hopefully I've cleaned it up enough to where it's near perfect. KEEP IN MIND that I tabbed
it in D-tuning because I wanted an ALTERNATE way of playing this song that didn't make me stretch my hand
across 5 frets like I had seen in a Drop-D tab, or have to tune my guitar down to Drop-A#. This is a more
novice adaptation that likely only more advanced players will be able to tell the difference.

TUNING: D-tuning

NOTE TO NOVICE PLAYERS: This is written such that you can play it in standard tuning if you please. D-tuning
is the same as standard tuning, only all of the strings are "shifted" a whole step down (thus D instead of E).
If you want to play along with the music, you'll have to tune it down to D-tuning.

Breakdown OR Alternate Breakdown (whichever you like better)
Final Chorus
Verse x2

Again, this tab is intended for a close adaptation that a novice player can learn with little/no re-tuning.
I provided an Alternate Breakdown in case someone fancies playing it that way better (that's how I like to
play it because it kind of fills in for the bass, which the bass part is a huge component of this song)
