Comments: I've been meaning to do this tab for a while, but I keep forgetting, and when I
remember, I'm never tuned down half a step.  If you tried tuning my guitar, you wouldn't
bother tuning it down a half step just to tab one song either.  It's that bad.  Fuck man,
you wouldn't tune this sumbitch down half a step if Yngwie Malmsteen asked you to.  BTW,
it's a Squier Affinity Strat, so I'm not workin' with much.  Anyway, the tab came out
great IMO, and if you spot any mistakes, please make me aware of them or send me the
correction.  Later.
