I've gotten some very bad ratings on this song and I REALIZE that it is not going to be perfectly true to the
original since the original is only guitar riffs. That said, I wanted to make a version that I could play that
sounded fairly accurate so I came up with this.
If you're wondering how to play this tab, I made a youtube video of myself playing it. You can find it
I would really appreciate it if you would watch the video before rating the tab. Hopefully it will clear
things up
Notes on the video:
- obviously it's on piano and not guitar, but I have put the chords in so you know where they are
- it is transposed six half-steps down because that's the key I sing it in
So though it is far from perfect I think that it works well enough, but please let me know if you have
suggestions. Thanks!
