The Fumes are a great two-piece from Australia. There are no tabs for this song anywhere
on the internet but I've found a few requests for one, so I've taken it upon myself to
make one. It may not be 100% accurate but I think it is pretty close.

Please leave a comment if you find any part(s) of the tab that I could improve on or if
you just have any suggestions.

The song is played in Drop D MajorD (DADGBe) tuning
