Drop D tuning (dadgbe) 

Ive been working on this for a while to get it to sound rite. I am 100% sure 
that the intro and chorus is exactly how they play it on the album, im not 
totally sure about the bridge but i think its rite, it sounds good to me.  If 
u think its wrong ur jes not playin it rite or ur tone def, u decide, dont 
forget drop d tuning!

i looked at the version thats here and the intro is kind of off, but illl 
give that guy credit he did a good job

    Ok if you want to play this song just like on the album you will need an 
electric guitar with some kind of acoustic simulator effect.  It sounds ok to 
do it in a clean channel electric on the acoustic parts too, but i prefer the 
real sound.  Its also fun to play the whole thing on acoustic, its a nice 
little entertaining piece to play in front of people.  They dont play it on 
two different guitars, they only have one guitarist and i saw them play it 
live on a few different shows.

(there is no timing here u gotta figure out how many times to play each chord 
urself)
Intro/Verse (acoustic guitar/sim)3x
