First tab written down properly, so it's a bit scratchy. Seems like a lot of chords, but once you figure it out it's all simple progressions and patterns, nice and easy :) Am working on tabbing the lead, but will take a while as I'm only a rhythm guitarist. Anything you spot wrong, or tips to give me, email me at finn.dan@gmail.com
