This was a rather difficult Tab to figure out. I finally got to actually play it once I put some timing to it. I find that people on this site must really hate timing because every tab I have pulled from here I had to time myself and even rearrange some of them because its hard to keep up if you are trying to bounce back and forth accross the page finding notes or trying to figure out where the next section picks up at. My advice USE TIMING and try not to use "play this x2" very seldom is any two sets of measures the same so just tab them out and don't be lazy about it. Write it like you would regular sheet music. Other than that great post. :-)

The notes are right but the timing is confusing as hell, its not so much that you don't tell us words to correspond as much as the notes aren't spaced well. The things you threw in with the "Then Play This:" type things were the real problem for me, I could figure out the verses.

nice tab too bad people dont know how to listen to the song and find the tempo
