whoo... well, the only thing i'm unsure about is the acoustic part in the middle of the song...
maybe if i find some other program to take out the other parts of the song, i can figure 
out. the rest
is pretty much ok..... any questions, comments, feedback or whatever... email em with the song in the
subject line.... Jamesgab007@aol.com

Special thanks to:
The Protomen, for making such an awesome CD and touring in the east (that's me!)
The people in the forums who decided to make a topic on making the tab, which gave mm a 
to finally do it.
