Ok... whew.... so much to say about this song. This is the Live in LA version,
I have never even listened to the CD veriosn before :). This tab is of now
for sure 90% correct, and I will continue to update it, but I wanted to get
it up as fast as I could without spending a month on it. I hope that
EVERYONE will see this tab purely as a template, nothing more. DO NOT
read it nore for  note, because you will not be playing how you probably
want to play it, and the rythm is not perfect, I know, but you don’t need it
hopefull because you are reading this and listening to the song at the
same time. This is definately ADVANCED,  and is not for the moderate
player, especially since this tab is a template and requires some improvization.
