Not many Tabs on this and most are way out. This is pretty close.
This song has 3 guitarists but I have tabbed for just 1 or 2 and I have not done the
yet. If you use this tab it is enough to get by with on the one axe.
This is my 1st ever Tab!!
Tabbed by Dave Wallace from Perth, Australia

(Fig 2, Fig 3 & Fig 4) are for use if have 2 guitars playing song together, otherwise
n match as you wish.
Fig 3 is played alot through the whole song but not tabbed here as it is the 3rd guitar
this part during verse and chorus. Listen closely and you can hear it.
Enjoy, this song rocks!!!!
