Version 1.0b - July 6th 2006

Tabber: Morpheus (hot_katjans@hotmail.com)
Edited By: Chrispaks [I added in stuff, like the ending, bells used during
first solo, full bass]

Comment: this is one of my favorites in my band, great soloing and love the
vocals.

right now)
Use two cymbals (x = higher pitched, c = deeper sound)
