Tuning: Standard


I don't know what these other tab submitters were thinking. There is no A in the chorus. 
If you have any musical ear, you would realize that when you played it.
Also, I prefer playing the guitar part on the bass for the intro and the bridge back 
into the second verse, but you need a big hand/long finger reach to be able to do it. So if 
you don't want to do that, just play B, E, Ab, and F# eight times each, just like in the verse.

So, this is how I play the song - the CORRECT way.
