The Freshmen - The Verve Pipe

- CHANGE FONT SIZE (PT. 8) AND USE A FIXED-WIDTH FONT -

Tabbed by:  Steve Jang - I also tabbed out "Don't Speak" by No Doubt

I included the lyrics so that it would be easy to denote which riff to 
play and the Guitar 2 Fills.  Not everything in the song follows this
tab EXACTLY, so improvise a little and listen to the song for the very
minor parts.
