- Relies somewhat heavily on the Bass guitar/synth/drums to fill out the song
- Please listen and practice the timing of when each part corresponds with
  another, as I can't really time it out perfectly; both the beat and melody are
  pretty unique -- I did however try my best to keep the tabs in line-ish with timing
- Added the minute/second mark behind each part
