This is from watching the Dig For Fire/Allison video. I am not too sure
about the chords over "Allison" at the end, so feel free to change them
to something you think sounds better. Also, these chords are for standard
tuning (EADGBe); from watching the video it looks like the guitars are tuned
down a half step. Enjoy! --Ryan cygnusx1@prairienet.org
