========================


Thats pretty much the whole shabang, for those of you who are
way to lazy to d-tune your guitars, but want to impress you freinds with
this into anyway, you can play it by starting the same way up on
the 9th fret, 3rd smallest string, and it will sound good, but you
won't be able to play fig 1 and fig 2 without d-tuning.


If there's anything in this song i missed, i'll tab it all later,
but right now I gotta order some pizza.

c-ya, and don't be afraid to email.
