How to play

good tab. I agree though that the intro should be on the A string as well as a couple of other parts that i play on different strings. I think the first note is a 10 not an 11 though (or 3 on A string) and in the chorus start on 3 instead of 4. And the pre-chorus i play like this: D|-7---7---4--------------------------- A|-5---5---0---3/5---8\7---7\1---1/4--- D|-4---3---0-------0-----0-----0-----0- Then: D|-7---7---10-- A|-5---5---8--- D|-4---3---6--- obviously they are just the chords, not the strumming pattern.

haven't tried the whole thing but the intro is perfect!!! you get 5 just for that. This album kicks yours ass from track 1 to 11 and this one is no exception. Nice!!
