The tab on the stu hamm web site is wrong, cuz stu doesnt want any compitition, so i just
did my own arrangment of the entire piano piece. its not too tough, and its a good tool
to learn tapping. The note lengths on the top of the staff are the upper melodies, and
the ones below are the bass note durations, try to keep the bass notes fully susstained
for a really cool piano like effect.
