If there are any mistakes please fix them ; rememer that this is the

Woodstock version if you fix anything. I've been playing guitar for 3 years

and i'm only 13 so there could be a mistake somewhere. I've seen lots of

requests for this song on the internet so Ihope I made a lot of people

happy(I better have 'cause this song is hell to tab).
