Notes: w = whole   h = half   q = quarter
         e = 8th     s = 16th   t = 32nd  x = 64th
 
         Capital durations are dotted notes
          (equal to 1.5 times the duration value)
       R = rest
         + = tied from previous note
 
    #
+----+                                       +----+

Good tab. Playing the A on the open A string is slightly higher in tone that playing it on the E string @ the fifth fret. Really, it's a matter of preference. In most songs, I personally go for the lower tone. Anyway, good tab. Fun song..
