o, and the A A# B C# progression really goes like this: A B C C#...it sounds better

absolutely beautiful song and a good tab thnx dude

Some trash talkin' going on here. Why the negativity? Here we have a fellow guitarist sharing with us and some have the nerve to put him down? Not cool. If you like his tab, great! Let him know like most of you already have. If there's something that can be fixed, why can't we point it out respectfully? I, myself can't wait to dig into this tab. Not because I want to learn the song note for note but for the licks and techniques i can learn and apply in my own playing. Play on, my Brothers and Sisters!!!
