Capo: 1st Fret

This song is on the fast side, so you have to be quick with the chords! I 
played it by ear so it might not be 100% accurate, but it sounds pretty 
close at least. I also added all of the instrumental bits in the middle 
(they can be pretty tricky if you want to time it just right with the song) 
which are optional to play. Enjoy!
