Performance notes:
*During the verse there is only one guitar, and the chord rhythm in the beginning of the verse is not continued but gives way to the lead part.
*The bridge is the only time when two guitars play
*The last measure of the bridge |----------| should actually be |----------| with the last chord
|----------| |----------|

|6--7--4---| |1--2--*---|
|6--7--4---| |1--2--*---|
|6--7--4---| |1--2--*---|
a low Db5, but that would force the whole song to be played in drop C tuning (C G C F A D) and is unnecessary since the three chords I've written out work fine. If you happen to play in Drop C, just shift all the tab numbers up two frets, and you'll be good to go.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official JACK OFF JILL tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
