One Direction “Story Of My Life” Guitar Tab

 

Hi there :)  I've had many requests for awhile on UG and now here 
to "Please! Please!" tab this. I've finally gotten around to it!
I actually slowed down the intro of the song in Wave Pad and got every note in there.  
IT'S SUPER QUICK PICKING, SO PRACTICE AND PRACTICE and you'll get it. It took me a bit
to be able to actually keep up with the song timing wise, but now I can and it's really 
fun to play.  Just practice!! 
**The hammer on and pull off on the C chord is really easy!  Just hammer with your 
pinky and then pull it off. You gotta do it strong enough though! You can always 
just pick the D string if your hammer on's and pull off's are not effective.
Play along-

Auto scroll will be too slow, you'll have to open two windows or print the tab out.
I'm trying to work on something that will go the faster speed to keep up with tabs....
