Tabs

Tabbed by Breadtruck

FIRST OFF, I know this song is probably played in drop D MajorD on the studio recording, but my
band plays in drop C majorC and I tabbed this out for us. If you want to play this in drop D,
just play everything 2 frets down. I think it sounds better like this anyway, as it
gives it a slightly heavier feel.
