This is such an EASY song. I still can?t believe no one has tabbed it right yet. Ok
in the chorus where there is a series of three ?1? it indicates that that is a
QUARTER NOTE TRIPLET. IT IS NOT ?3 + 4? LIKE ALL THE OTHER TABS HAVE IT CUZ THEYRE
WRONG. Yes there is such a thing as a quarter note triplet. For further explanation
look at the end of the tab.


Rest 4 measures (main riff played twice)

Explanation of a Quarter Note Triplet
As with any other triplet a quarter note triplet is three quarter notes
played within a space where you could normally only fit two quarters. However, some
of you may be confused as just how to space the notes in order to make them even.
Think of it like this:

Take two eighth note triplets(the L?s and R?s represent the sticking):
 
 RLRLRL
|oooooo|
 1  2  

Now just remove all of the notes played with the left hand:

|o-o-o-|
 1  2  

If you?re still having difficulty, then listen to the song and just play it the way you hear it.
