The tab is for the mandolin part not the acousitic
guitar part(but the chords are at the top of this page) The chords above the tab refer to the
acoustic guitar and not to the mandolin parts, the reason I put them is for a
reference to when you play what. Also I
am too lazy to write all the parts eveytime they appear because there's a lot
of repeating. Okay now that the
explanation is done,
the Intro is :
