Right, this one bugs me cos there is 8 versions and not 1 is right.
There is no bass til the drums start, it is guitar. The other tabs have
bass playing from the start, it doesnt. It comes in with the drums.
This tab was quickly rejected, it is the correct way to play the song.
completely different to other versions, it should be on here to give
bassists the chance to play the song right
