After not being able to locate one of my relatively new favourite
songs on the internet, I decided to take an afternoon out to tab
it. The mordents can be played with or without the acciccaturas,
but generally sounds better with them. Any questions/corrections:
frickinmeh@hotmail.com
Key:
(fret) = acciccatura
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
