! Copy On To NotePad ! 

note: there shouldn't be any pauses when playing these sections, i made it like that so it's easier to read, instead of counting all the notes, although there is a pause after the chorus

*the chorus is difficult for me to figure out there are several ways to play it and i wrote out two; play around with it, i'm probably wrong but everything else is 100% right
   -the optional chorus is at the bottom
