If It Means A Lot To You Tab

Notice:  I have a few covers on my YouTube page under "Ricoa283".
I put my most recent cover of it with all the lead parts included on there
if you need a visual.  This tab was made over a year ago so this is without
any lead parts.  I'm currently in the process of updating this tab so that
lead parts are included.  Please bare with me as it'll take some time to do so.
 
If you have any questions, please contact me via e-mail or YouTube
