Tab: Within Temptation - Mother Earth from the album Mother Earth

Version 1.0 May the 6th 2003

Tabbed by: Manuel Gutierrez Rojas a.k.a. Manolito Mystiq

Notes:
version 1.0:
So nobody tabbed this? Or I haven't seeked too hard? Well
this is my transcription (r) of it, probably with its flaws, but here you go!!!

p.s.: a B#dim is the same as a Cdim (as well as F#dim, Adim and D#dim),
but because after that diminished chord there comes a C#m and it's not
logical to have two C's in a key.
