First tab, should be really darn tootin accurate though. Get the notes under your
and then just add bags of feel. Good song to learn to sing whilst playing to as well- most
Keys stuff is.
 
The /\/\/ aspects mean apply a bit of tremolo to the note.

great tab, its alot easier to play with barre chords though
chords are right but, he definitely plays power chords. Good tab
seems spot on, nice tab. the final solo's abit odd tho.
