1) this song is in 6/8 time, so think of it more as a waltz.
u kno, like, 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 3...
in other words, every third note u play, is one beat of the song!
yay for band class.
or for the more musically experienced, 1 2 3 4 5 6, 1 2 3 4 5 6...
so sometime in the tab im going to refer to it as intervals of 6 more than i will 3.
The whole intro is palm muted, because the piano kinda beats everything =]
