#Ok I got most of this figured out(chord wise that is), I can pic it out myself, but
#I'm too damn lazy to tab it, so all I'm giving you is the idea with the chords, and
#you can do the rest, I know the bridge isnt perfect, But if anyone gets the correct
#chords for it, let me know. It will make you better at playing by doing this, I also
#didn't put the chords directly with the lyrics like I have done on some of my previous
#tabs. I hope they are some help.If not email me. numberone_marine@yahoo.com. Laidher,
#Quinton.
