The Weakerthans ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Julian Email: JooL33t@yahoo.com I didn.t see any tabs up for the solo part, so I thought I.d give it a shot. This is, I the basic foundation of it. I wanted to for once, be a contributor. Most likely it.s to have some errors, but its all in the sake of learning right?(my first tab =])You can take this rough draft and tweak it to your liking though, just listen to the song for added effects I may have missed. *Note . during the last two parts, the ending is a bit fuzzy so you can just listen to song to see how it really goes. Enjoy!
