I think that this intro is 98% correct, and I must say that
it was very tough tabbing it down.

Everything else is strummed chords only, and some little riffs 
which I hope I'll send few months after. 

Have a nice time.





The song ends with the electric guitar:

e---------------------------6--|
B--6---7---6---7-----------7---|
G----8---8---8---8-------8-----|
D----------------------8-------|
A--------------------6---------|
E------------------6-----------|  strum the chord, as in the end of the intro.
