Tabbed By: Adam Seto

Wow….it took me a grand total of about 2 or 3 hours to tab this whole freakin’ song! I
to keep flipping through the song, tabbing out what I could and I ended up with this.
I hope you guys enjoy, because I busted my chops over this tab. At least it’s the whole song. Peace out.

Legend:

/or\   Legato slide   (slide to the next note without striking it)
b      Bend           (assume as quarter bend if it is by itself. Ex, 3b NOT 3b4)
r      Release bend   (release bend back to original position)
h      Hammer-on      (strike note with fretting hand without the pick attack)
