Well, its been a long time since probably has done a tab justice.
I spent long hours on this song, and I'm 10000 % sure this is the way that
Rzeznik plays it, if not even better.
Tabber: Jake Chen (YES ME!)
Tuning: DADGDD
E- Down to D
B- Up to D (if it snaps, replace the string with a high E string)

D- keep the same
A- keep the same

The song is also played in D#A#D#G#D#D# standard, so just tune it
to the DADGDD and put a capo on 1 st fret.
