Great song, simply beautiful… I know the song seems really difficult, but it's
simple… I mean, after you play it over and over again, maybe isn't 100%
accurate 'cause this is my first tab so comment and rate please… you can mail
me: 'j053montenegro@yahoo.es' (it's a zero in j053).
 
GOD bl3s5 U.

very well done. I play the last bar of the intro (same as the last bar of the verse) a little different. Yours: e|------------------------| B|-----1------1-----------| G|----0------0------------| D|-------0h2----2--2p0----| A|---------------------2--| E|--3---------------------| How I play it: e|-------------------------| B|-----1------1----1-------| G|----0------0----0--------| D|-------0h2--------2p0----| A|----------------------2--| E|--3-----------3----------| Not much of a change, though. 5 stars.
