I only used this for my own prison as ive got greatest hits album, but got job it all sounds right on. Too bad creed split up, they was a great band. You should add in some of the variations in the verses though as if you listen you can clearly hear some alterations going on in the verses. Ill probably vary it in my own ways anyway. good job.

@Fausch, those are all just tailnotes, he has the main parts down really good. The tailnotes are variations you make on your own. BTW, Illusion is the most accurate tab I have ever found for that song.
