This tab is my own work.

This awesome song is off of The Afters new CD. It's an amazing
acoustic song and I
this tab is 100% correct if you take the time to learn it in it's
entirety. As always, refer
the song for timing and rhythm.

You can play the song in standard tuning if you want, but it's going
to be a half step higher.
