This is pretty much bang on!!!!  I play this live with my band, and it always 
goes down VERY well!!!!!!

It looks a little intimidationg, as the structure is quite complex, but
this song is EASY!! It is the same riff in 5 different positions. Learn them
one at a time, and then try and put them together.

Good luck.

This is my first ever tab!!!!!!!!

I reckon this band singer thinks he's Lennon, fair bit of similarity in voice and singing styles. Pretty cool band.
