I checked the actual sheet music and the C 3rd fret is written
in the sheet music as the guitar and bass parts)

3rd verse and fade
(I can't take credit but I figured this site needed this song! :) )
hello weelll done good sir
do ya knowq how to play the cow bell part? LOL good tab man
Whilst listening to the song, though I may have a differn't version that you do, your missing stuff at the end of verse one and between the three parts of the first solo break. Thats as far as I've really taken it but I thought that I would let ya know. Other than that, so far it seems pretty decent.
