Take the Reins 
ALBUM VERSION

Note - As stated above this is the version that appears on the album "Ultimate Escape",
the main part that differs from the way that mike plays it live is that in the chorus,
it is picked and not strummed, the notes are kind of like a harmonic of the chord.
It may look a bit hard, but it sounds great with the recording. This is my 3rd tab of
this particular one, as ive done the live one, and a single version, which is ment to be 
the same as this, but i have changed it alot after watching the video, so this is as perfect
as you will see.
