This is a pretty basic song to play just listen to the song for the different strumming
patterns. A lot of the
song is played on the 6th and 5th string(E and A).
I hope the lyrics are ok too, no way am I writing out the la daa da da part, you can go
figure it out yourself!
This is my first go at tabbing and I've done it by ear so please let me know of any
mistakes! ;-;
I might add the solo at a later stage, if there's a demand for it.
