What a mess was this! I really thought in the beginning it can be played with one guitar, but if you
want to play it properly you should at least play this song with two persons.
Still, the tab is done for one person, but I'm not really content with it. It's very hard to remove
notes, even though I still felt you need them. Well, try to enjoy it, but I tell you, it's tough.

Ow crap, I totally forgot...

Capo should be 1 if you want to play it in original tuning. My apologies for not putting that in. If there are any more changes that need to be made, I will update the txt.


@Brave Toaster (March 10, 2010 at 6:55 AM)

You must have put a lot of effort in it, it looks pretty nice! It is a hard song to make a solid arrangement of. But in spite of my skills I couldn't play it properly. Maybe you could make an Guitar Pro version of it so that we can have a better notion of the song?


@trickypat (March 11, 2010 at 12:18 PM)

... for changing capo in the txt!

This is probably the best difficult-fingering-training gametabs have to offer :D It's too bad that there are no length-marks but after playing it through 10 times or so I got the hang of it.
