Oke, well I noticed that there is just not one good tab for this
song on the internet,I tried to play it by ear,
and I think that it worked out pretty well.
This is a very awesome not hard to play song. Just listen to the song and you will get
rhythm. I’m pretty shure these chord are the right ones cause when I play along to the
it sound the same to me.
I hope it helps you,
enjoy!
