The Ataris_-_The Boys Of Summer (v2.5)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: RaZoRb0|z
Email: razorb0iz@hotmail.com
Tuning: Standard (For those whose voices are not that spectacular to reach that high
pitch in the chorus, tune it down by quarter or half step.)
(PLEASE read read-me before playing =])
Version 2.5 Erh...Quite a few people said that my tab is confusing, so I checked it
over...And found that a lot of my pull offs were written as hammer ons.
Also, removed the pickscrapes where I realized they didnt use them 0.o
And I made the gaps between sections bigger. Noticed that the Main Riff
For guitar 2 was probably the one causing confusion, so redid it. =)
(26th July 07)

This is as accurate as I can get it.It may get more accurate if you guys can give me
some help by adding your comments.Come back frequently because I update as soon as I
get comments.
The Ataris_-_The Boys Of Summer
All Electric Guitars (by right, Guitar 4 only plays during the parts stated, but
hey...this is what rocks all about right? =) Let Guitar 4 play whatever he wants
during the other parts. Haha. [your choice guys...])
Oh yeah by the way, the timings/strummings given here are general. I havent put in
the actual strumming/plucking patterns/times into the song because honestly it would
take too long to tab that out. So do make sure you listen to the song a few times to
get the hang of the kind of strumming you guys want to use aight? =)
