awesome tab but just a suggestion. instead of playing e--3- B--3- G--0- D--0- A--5- D--5- you can play e--3- B--3- G--0- D--0- A--2- D--0- it sounds pretty much exactly the same and is a bit easier to get to
+11
D= down U= up its pretty common knowledge
looks like he managed to piss you off, good tab
