NOTE:  In order to make this tab easier to understand, the repeats have been labled in
the number of times a figure is played.  Example:  5x over a repeat means play this
figure five times, not ten.  2x means play this figure twice, not four times.  Try to
listen to the song for more sequencing information.  Also, be sure and use a pick when
playing this song.

He did tab it in F#. He says "REST" cause he has the bass come in on the E part of the verse. Good job! Especially the Chorus, it's hard to find the right tabs for it. This sound dead on.
