    This is a great song by No Doubt. Tony Kanal is an exceptional bassist
 with his unique bass-playing style. I think this tab is perfect though
 I did'nt bother to write the variations in the ending.
    Anyway, if you have any comments or suggestions, please e-mail me.
 Have fun and hop you'll like it

  Symbols:
