FOREWARD:
PLEASE send me any corrections or quibbles you have with this tab instead of jacking my work 
and using it as your own to make a supposed 100% correct version. Each of my SOAD tabs have been
stolen (some submitted to other sites, some even re-posted on MX with my credits removed), so please
resist the urge to become a douche thief.

Anyway, hope you enjoy -- not a very hard song, but fun, fun, fun like most SOAD songs.
