EMAIL:  cab144@cs.usask.ca
TUNING: Standard
This is my first tab soooo.
Please mail me with corrections as I have only been playing for 2 months
and some of this could be wrong, but I think its pretty close.

Intro :

||----------------------------------------
||----------------------------------------
||----------------------------------------
||---------------x-8--x-8--x-8--x-8-8-8---
||---------------x-8--x-8--x-8--x-8-8-8---
||-/17~~---------0-6--0-6--0-6--0-6-6-6---

 3 x's .   .   .   .            then     [little end riff]
