This is a fairly easy song. It took me about 20 min to figure
out entirely. I'm not sure if I got all the fills but I'm
pretty sure I did. My tab is a bit confusing when you get
to the second verse. But listen to the cd for timing then
you will get it for sure. This is a great song by a great
band off a great album. If there are any questions,
comments or suggestions, I am willing to take them. My

| punk in drublic says... It seems logical that this song was about them being a local band, of course.... but maybe... it's too easy.. maybe songs aren't about using logic... oh well. | |
