Avril Lavigne - Why
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tabbed by Charles de la Cruz (http://www.comeunglued.com/avril/)
Tuning - Standard tuning with Capo on 2nd fret
//==============================================================\\
|| **note** ||
|| This song was a little difficult for me to tab out because ||
|| I could swear I could hear a high B playing during the intro ||
|| which led me to believe that possibly the song is played in ||
|| the middle of the guitar neck. I've decided to write the ||
|| song out using a capo on the 2nd fret. It makes the song ||
|| a little easier to play. ||

Hey, I saw a version of this online, and there were a couple flaws. I tried to
fix the chords I thought were wrong. I'm VERY confident about this version.
Lemme know of any differences you have.
You can watch her and Evan play it here:

I based this on Avril's Live performance at AOL's Sessions (see link),
so it's really detailed. It's good for just VOCAL & GUITAR performance,
which is what it was on AOL. Enjoy!
