Tabs
This is my first tab so I hope everyone is pleased with it. I've looked at several other tabs and never
felt satisfied with the way they sounded or how incomplete they were. So I put my ear to the test.
This tab is very easy to play and fun to sing to as well!
Intro:
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
|---7-------7-------6-------6-------4-------4-------4-------4-----|
|-------7-------7-------7-------7-------5-------5-------5-------5-|
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
|-7---7---7---7---5---5---5---5---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---|
The above pattern is essentially the whole song. The only difference is the part which I suppose I
will refer to as the "Bridge."
There is a noticeable difference in the picking style which switches to chords.
Bridge: Start strumming at the designated spots as you sing the lyrics or hum them or what have you.

"But no, I have not yet."
(STRIKE THIS CHORD ONCE AND LET IT RING OUT.)
For the rest of the song simply play the intro to the remaining lines and you've got it!
Hope this tab checks out Okay, I've put a lot of time and effort into creating a genuine tab.
