88 Tab

88-Sum41-Chuck

This is possibly my favorite Sum 41 song and
frankly all the tabs I've seen for it aren't
the greatest.So I figured I'd take a shot at it.

Okay, all the tabs I've seen for this solo say that it's tapping 
which is wrong, this is a sweep picking solo.

The ending is just that repeated a bunch of times.
And there you have it I'm pretty sure that is a little better 
than some of the other tabs out there.
