Hi everyone
From the first time i hear this song I have loved it and wanted to play it. However all
the tabs I have found for this just don't seem to work.  About a month ago i heard Paolo
Santos version of this song and he played it amazingly. Listening to it over and over I
made some progress but it didn�t sound right. Until I hit the head stock of my guitar on
my wardrobe and was forced to retune my guitar, I tuned it wrong by accident (Wardrobe
changed low E to F) however when i played the song it was perfect. Hope you guys enjoy
this.

Tuning (F A# D# G# C F) Can Be Played in standard tuning but this is more accurate
