Sorry this took so long, had to arrange for my brother to get on a computer

and have at it :)  I hope you enjoy it, despite the wait.  This has also been

posted on alt.guitar.tab and rec.music.makers.guitar.tablature.



NOTE: this tab was done by my brother, who has no net.account.  I tried to

edit some of the instructions to be clearer and everything, but I may not

have succeded in all cases :) :)  Apologies if you don't understand parts of

it.  Questions, comments, or requests for more to irsman@iastate.edu and I'll

forward them to him.  - Ian
