This is a ****ing epically awesome tab! You put the lyrics in (big plus) and made everything really easy to piece together, no redundancy! Well done, mate.
great tab, keep up the good work 5/5
Hey dude, the tab seems perfect. The only thing that I find fault with in the chorus is the second vibrato. It sounds like it should be a 9v, instead of the 8v. Otherwise, awesome tab!
