Thanks Buddy!!! I am not sure if i wud be able to play it as of now... but i sure aspire to play it ASAP Rock On!!!
pretty tough song to tab actually...good job...havent tried it out but the sheer effort you have put in is commendable...requires a lot of finger picking (Strumming ) skills...definitely not a song for beginners...and trust me it sounds awful on an electric guitar
