Chord/Tab song: Energy

Energy by Skillet from their newest album: Collide (2003) Ardent Records

tabbed by john ([email protected]) email me with corrections

Drop D tuning
(I'm told that they play a lot in drop C#, but this sounds right to me)

This tab doesn't even try to give the rhythm, timing or even strum patterns
I just tried to make it easy to understand if you listen to the cd
