Ok. This is my first tab, so bear with me. I started to tab out the song because I was
of searching for a better tab. I know I don?t have all the parts, and I know I?m not 100%
but I do have most of them written down on here at least. I?ll give credit where credit 
due. I thank nibbleschew and the others who wrote this tab before me.

Here?s the best I could come up with, but you?ll have to find out the timing by
I?m open to all suggestions to make this tab better. In fact, I encourage it.

Tuning: Standard Tuning
