------------------5------7------5------0-0-0-] Even if the song is not played perfectly it is very easy to have lots of fun with this song and make it sound good. The timing is Tabed to the best of my power, if in doubt listen to the CD. If there are any mistakes repost it with any corrections (though there shoudn't be any large ones). But unless the whole song is wrong give me credit for tabing this all out cus it took me 6 hours from scratch. Enjoy! Troy Troy.Mallett@mailexcite.com
