Hope that sounds good for you all. I do not take any credit for any of this work,
just posted corrections. Most of the original tabs were crimson_addict and I just
added what I felt were needed corrections. Enjoy! Feel free to comment addictions
such as Josh's part along with even keyboard for guitar. Have fun!
