This is if you want to follow along with the vocals.
I know this is exactly right or perfect but you can follow along with the song. If 
you have a correction please post because I would like to know how its done ...

hey aswome tab but the intro is a little short i think it kind of does the first line in the verse but i'm not sure but other wise it's great

first off the intro's alright i was thinking of a different song so don't fret second what do you set your amp on i can't get it to sound right mines to high pitched and on my cd it's low on the high strings
