Great work. Makes my life 100% easier. Two little changes though. Both on the chorus. First ... the 3rd time through they go to a C#m, not an E. So should be: E-A-B-E E-A-B-E E-A-B-C#m E-A-B-E Second ... You could play the run at the top of the chorus with just the bass notes, and I would switch to the melody notes ... so: D---------2 A-----0-2-- E---4------ I also prefer to play the Bs as open B7s (021202), but that's a matter of preference. (as is the bass note riff!) Again, very happy about this tab!
