------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Wakefield22 E-mail: just message me on here Okay so I've yet to find one complete tab online so I decided to make one. Usually only bits and pieces of the tabs for this song are correct but this one should be near perfect. The tuning is half-step down. Overall the song is not a hard song at all. Enjoy.
