This is my first ever song that I tabbed so if you have any comments, suggestions, 
please, don't hesitate to e-mail me or add me at Friendster, Yahoo! Messenger or Hi5.

Thank You, God, for the talent you gave me to express myself.

I don't have an Electric Guitar at home so I don't know any effects except distortion.

This is not perfect but I worked hard for this.

Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

Intro: Xylophone/Effects  (8 times but after the first four, pause first before 
to the second four)
