I'm not going to lie... I copy and pasted from other versions in writing
this one. However, this version is unique, this is my first tab, and I don't
see how you people type all this stuff!
Anyways, I play the chords a little differently than the way the other guy
wrote 'em. I like the way mine sound just a little bit better. I've had
several people tell me they like they way I play it more so than the album
version. I think those people are nuts, but either way, I figured I'd write
it down here and see what the UG community thinks. PLEASE comment. (I'm not
sure what the "Dm Var" is actually. Please let me know if you figure it out. lol)

I'm not going to lie... I copy and pasted from other versions in writing

this one. However, this version is unique, this is my first tab, and I don't

see how you people type all this stuff!

Anyways, I play the chords a little differently than the way the other guy

wrote 'em. I like the way mine sound just a little bit better. I've had

several people tell me they like they way I play it more so than the album

version. I think those people are nuts, but either way, I figured I'd write

it down here and see what the UG community thinks. PLEASE comment. (I'm not

sure what the "Dm Var" is actually. Please let me know if you figure it out. lol)
