I've studied this song for 15 years... and after producing a backing track of it for Johnny Gioeli's solo shows + performing it live with him at Sonic Expo 2023, I decided I had to teach everyone how to play it.
The TAB was created by myself and Luis Almeida ( @heavenlybasslines ). We spent literally hundreds if not thousands of hours painstakingly transcribing every detail out of our passion for the band and song. The result is a TAB that is more accurate than any Open Your Heart transcription ever made.
Oh, and sorry for my trouble playing to a click... The Let's Player's Curse still afflicts me.
