I don't know this song or this band but I promised to tab it for a friend. Also, because
don't have the song on my iPod, I am tabbing using my shitty computer speakers so there
be some intricacies missing, or I may hear something that's not even there!

Chorus-
just the intro a few times. There may be some quiet fills that my speakers aren't
up but you're not gonna get them off me. Make up your own!

The bassist is pretty crap and seems to just pedal the lowest-string open to the rhythm
that riff. You can either but the riff sounds better.

Chorus-
Same concept, I'm too lazy to tab the intro AGAIN but with slightly different fills. In
I don't think this chorus even has any fills.

I think it's dull, but apparently some people do actually listen to this so maybe this
will get notice by someone other than my friend. If not then:
Hi, Bekah!!
