Tabbed by: Henry Ngo

Tuning: Half-step Down

at the same time because of the 
timing, but
it's a very catchy tune.
Email me with any comments, 
questions, or corrections regarding 
the tab!
Have fun!

         My flower struck down with

               good

                  E

           C#m               B
but in the evening I'm heavy now

                     E         
         Try as I might, I just 
           C#m           B
can't keep it steady now

                B      C#m
            oooooooo, oh my love

         ooooh 
    E                         Abm
ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhohohohohohoooooooooooooo


And you play E and Abm and 'ooo' for
 the rest of the song.
