This is an awesome song, and also my first "official" tab.  Please feel free to send your 
comments and questions to davidsulock@home.com .  I'm pretty sure this is right, try 
it for yourself.  Just because its my first tab doesn't mean its wrong :-p. 

Sum 41 has 2 guitarists!  I have only tabbed out the main guitarist part.  The other part 
isn't as critical as this one.

For this tab it's in dropped D tuning.  It doesn't have to be at all but I find it easier to 
play this way.
