Sum 41 - What Were All About (The Original Version)
---------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by N. Nguyen

I had a some difficulty with writing out the tab for the
solo because I have no idea how to tab tremolo bar 
manipulations!

If anybody has the foggiest idea of how to tab them, 
please feel free to fix my mess!

Use standard E tuning
