SongTitle: Diggin' this.

Tabs: I'm diggin the hell out of this song, it's bad ass, 
it's fairly simple, the solo is tight. i probably don't
have that totally right, but you can take it and run with it.

gtr 1 does this 2 times with gtr 2, then stops.

 you say you don't want it.
 just watch and you'll fall it.
 stare at the ceiling and
 ignore what i'm feeling.

 gtr 1  while gtr 2 keeps doing the verse riff.

 i can't find nothing wrong with it.
 and you say in your polite way
 oh by the way, could you get on with it?
