Is this glitched as **** for everyone else too?

The ending is a little bit off. It should be like: |-------------0-----------|-------------5------------| |-------6-------6---6-----|-------5-------5----5-----| |-----7---7-------7---7---|-----5---5-------5----5---| Gtr |---7-------7-----------7-|---7-------7------------7-| I |-5-----------------------|-7------------------------| |-------------------------|--------------------------| |-------------0-----------|--------------------------| |-------6-------6---6-----|-------5------------4-----| |-----7---7-------7---7---|-----5---5--------3---3---| Gtr |---7-------7-----------7-|---7-------7----5-------5-| I |-5-----------------------|-8------------6-----------| |-------------------------|--------------------------| Very nice tab though.

One little comment.. Change this: |-------------------------| |-------8-----------------| |-----7---7---------------| |---7-------7-------------| |-5-----------------------| |-------------------------| To this: |-------------------------| |-------6-----------------| |-----7---7---------------| |---7-------7-------------| |-5-----------------------| |-------------------------| It's a minor chord ;-)
