This is A correct tab. It's easy to play, don't be confused by the tab. Learn the chord
shapes first and then start stumming away.

RHYTHM: Listen to the song to hear the guitar rhythm, its loose and strummy in the 
verse untill it gets to the picking parts and the chorus. The chorus is strong and 
firm, don't forget to hit the dampened strings inbetween each chord for rhythm.

KEY
x - dampen the strings by just 'touching' the strings with your fretting hand

ADDITIONAL NOTES: Each section seperated by '|' counts as 1 bar (4/4 rhythm). See 
bottom of Tab for chords and chord shapes.

DROP D TUNING: Tune the bottom low E string down to D

Slight variation here, at each rest don't let the note ring through. You can 
hear this in the song.

For the last 4 bars, aim to produce a wall of sound. Let the last note in each 
bar ring out for two beats.

Thats it!

CLOSING COMMENTS: Do not ever ever ever spend time writing out guitar tabs, its 
probably one of the most boring, annoying things you can ever do. I was supposed 
to be revising for GCSE's now I will... its more fun! Anyway, hope this tab is helpful
at my expense >:|
