 #The Rocket Summer - Cross My Heart .written by Bryce Avery
 #Tabbed By Paul Welsford
 #
 #This is a very unusual song. FLippin amazing, but also strange.
 #there is no real chorus or bridge. there is just a load of different sections mised around a bit.
 #
 #This is my much simplified version for just one guitar to play along with.
 #but i will be writing up a more accurate version for 2 guitars very soon.
