It's still a great song. Check the way bottom for additional notes. Obviously kind of copied from other tabs of this song. I found all the tabs out there for this song partially correct, but this is what I play and it sounds fine to me/ all my friends who've listened to me play it, but its not 100% correct. This songs surprisingly easy to play. Its mostly made up of the following verse; so start with the following ---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2--------------- -------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2--------- -------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------ -----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4--- ----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------ --3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------- followed by the same thing, except ------------------------------------------|--------2-----------------2--------------- -------------0--------------------0-------|--------------3--0-----2--------2--------- -------2-----------2--------2-----------2-|-----------------------------------2------ -----0----------0--------2-----------2----|-----4--------------------------------4--- ----------------------0--------0----------|--2--------2--------0--------0------------ --3-------3-------------------------------|------------------------------------------ Right Here is where the different endings come in This "format" is used througout the entire song, and unless I say "play this" assume that after you play the verse, you play about half the verse again and add on an ending. Different Endings (In order) Each set is a different ending ---------------0----------0---- ------------0-----0-------0---- ---------2-----------2----1---- ------2----------------2--2---- ------------------------------- --0---------------------------- ------------------------ -----------5--------4--- --------4-----4--------- -----4-----------4------ --2-----------------2--- ------------------------ ------------------------------------------------ ---------------0-----0-----2-----------2-------- --------0------------------------4-----------3-- -----2------------2-----------2-----------2----- ------------------------------------------------ --0--------0------------2-----------2----------- --------2------------------------2--------- -----2--------2---------------2-----2------ -----------------3--------------------3---- --------------------4-------------------4-- ------------------------2--4--------------- --2--------2------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------ ---------------0-----0-----2-----------2-------- --------0------------------------4-----------3-- -----2------------2-----------2-----------2----- ------------------------------------------------ --0--------0------------2-----------2----------- --------------------2----------- -------0----------2---2--------- -----2---2-1------------3------- ---0---------2-4----------4----- -2------------------------------ -------------------------------- Right after that last ending, you should hear the singers voice kinds of change and same with the guitar, its almost a completely different feel to the song; so instead of playing the normal riff; ---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2--------------- -------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2--------- -------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------ -----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4--- ----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------ --3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------- you play this;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------0---------------------0---------------------0--------0-3--------2------ -------2-----------2--------2------------2---------2-----------2--------4--2-----2-- -----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------0---------4--------2---- ----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2----------------------------- --3-------3------------------------------------------------------------------------- but the ending comes sooner, so its this; ----------------------------------------------- --------------0-------------------------10----- Hold the 10, this is where the --------2---------2---------2-----7--9--------- singer says "Zutto" (Always or -----0----------0--------2-----7--------------- forever) Then start playing the ----------------------0------------------------ normal verse, like so; --3--------3----------------------------------- (This is the little intermision where the guitar plays and the singer takes a break, gotta prep up for that crazy "ah" part) ---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2--------------- -------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2--------- -------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------ -----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4--- ----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------ --3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------- with the first ending;

Just do lots of bar stuff, don't move your fingers around that much, and concentrate. I use a pick, but it would probably be easier with your fingers.
