Straight EADGBe tuning
Do not be guided by the pattern of strumming in this tab. Listen to the
song. I have not listed any structure of the rhy. figures or riffs in the
end. LttS. For each figure, I have written the time of it's first occurance.
The riffs and other figures that have no name, are titled in time. These have
no names. 800x600. Be fine, and stay atheistic - have fun with the song.
- Knut Farstad
