GUITAR 2
-----------
		

ah= artificial harmonic


(ok, he probably uses a flanger or phaser in the intro, i'm not sure, but doing an
artificial harmonic up and down the neck sounds good. If you don't know what that is....
find out on some website...it's too hard for me to explain....)

Hold the last note out until he sings "Watched you tower over me." then play
the chorus until the end of the song





------------------------------------------------------------
Well....*** that took a long time....o well....i'm done now.
Please e-mail me and tell me if you liked it or not...Cause if
you didn't i will make changes to it. The solo was freakin hard
so thats probably not right, "but its the best your going to get
unless its from yellowcard themself." No just kidding. That's what
the other kid puts on his tabs.. So e-mail me about this tab please.
Enjoy. I just updated this. (11/29/03)
