NOTE:
in the tab the reason why some of the chords are in parentheses () is that those Chords
really aren`t played ... however, I put them in in case you wanted to play along if it
is only you playing guitar and want to carry the tune.
This song is mainly based on fills with the guitar. The only place true chords are played
is in the intro and breaks...also the fills I have put in where the guitar actually plays
them during the song... If you have any questions about anything contact me please...
When you see A --5-5-5-5h7 it means to play the notes at the 5th fret on the A string
and then 5h7 means to strike the note at the 5th fret and hammer on immediately to the
7th fret.... Hope this helps explain things.
