A letter to Elise - Blink 182

Tabbed by:eRicK

This song is a cover song Blink did at the Mtv Icon: The Cure. Mark did great
with the singging and Tom did a gnarly job with guitar and Travis was also great.
It sounds really rad and its very fun to play. I haven't seen any tabs for this song
yet so here you go.............

============================================================================
how do you do the one part right before they go into the intro riff on clean. its like a weird "scraping" noise that tom does. not a pickslide but something where he like mutes the strings and slides up or something and it makes this sweet sound.
you did a good job though. its sounds very good!
Sounds Great. Great Tab For A Great Song. Good Job
