Is This Thing On Tabs

(ver. 1)
Promise Ring

Note: Quite a tough one to transcribe, but I'm generally happy with it. Im a bit 
confused as exactly how to define a verse. Ok let's say a verse is this:

"Delaware are you aware of the air supply and television, delaware 
are you still there is this thing on, im coming down delaware are you aware
of the air supply and television Delaware are you aware of the air supply."



Intro
~ = ring. 
* = play ummm lots.
! = palm mute
/ = slide
& = play 8x

   *                    "Delaware are you aware........"

            I'm not so happy with that C9. Sounds ok I guess. Update:        
            try replacing the C9 chord with the one next to it. I think it
                sounds better.


Chorus Lead (it's hard to hear so I'm kinda guessing. Maybe there
ain't that many notes :)
