Feel free to send complaints, suggestions, improvements, flames, etc.
I saw a few tabs for the solos of this song and none seemed right to me.
Here is what sounds right to my ears but I'll let you be the judge.
Listen carefully to the solos before criticizing, though; as there are
lots of very faint hammers and notes that I've included where the other
tabbers didn't. I'd like to thank Jordan (BlyndGuy) for the majority of
the last solo and the nice tab he did for this sweet song.
Also, check out my version of Oleander - Why I'm Here...the CORRECT way
to play it including both guitars, the violin, and all 3 solos. The tab
is called Why I'm Here 2 I think.
ENJOY!

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 OLEANDER 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.
