this song is not that hard to play, and i can't believe that no one has got it 
right yet. enjoy and please rate and post you comments. if you have any
arguments about it, i have the dvd of live in san diego and this is how jon,
(the lead singer) plays it. i would trust him, wouldn't you?

Tab is read like you're looking at the fret board.
The strings Are:
Highest e
B
G
D
A
Lowest E
The dashes ( - ) mean don't play. The numbers stand for the fret on which you play. Numbers side by side are played together.
Tab Symbols:
H= hammer-on/off (there's another symbol I can't make on the keyboard)
\= slide (up or down depending)
hope it helps

0... to 5...

I dunno... that just sounds better to me

guitarmonkey123 - 2006-03-25
