I agree, it's a great chord chart. A suggestion:I would be nice if you posted the solo or lead, but hey, for chords it comes very close for someone who wants to sing it themselves.

Lack of accuracy. Am minor chord is way overused, and a lot of the other chords are out of order. Try revising the tab in so you have a more accurate tab.

Well they don't necessarily have to post a lead since it's a Chord tab, good job with this one. My sister wanted me to learn this song, so I thank you for posting this.
