But you can't write etc at the end of the tab... Please, add all the lyrics!!!

I think the proper way to write this up would have been to take the tuning down 1/2 step from the start.

YOU KNOW WHAT C# G# D# ARE STUPID CHORDS WHY STRUGGLE TO DO THEM WHEN U CAN JUST SLAP ON A CAPO ON THE 1ST AN PLAY SIMPLE G C D HAHAH EASY
