First ever tab so don't be too harsh!!!!!!!!!!
Okay you don't have to play this one in drop D, unless you want to tune down to add a bit
of bottom end it really isn't worth it. However the choice is yours, I have tabbed in it
regular tuning. The only place it really matters is in the chorus, you may want to sub
the D5 power chord at the 5th fret for an open string on on the E string if you are
playing in drop D.
Have fun
Any comments (not about drop D) send to scubamonkey123@yahoo.co.uk
