Notes*:
     -Obviously this song is played on piano
     the piano part is tabbed out at the bottom
     of the page.

     -Most people would count this song out at
     84bpm but keep in mind that I have it tabbed
     out and mapped out in 168bpm (Halftime)

     -The song is in the key of Eb, but this chord
     sheet is in the key of D in order to be written
     for a capo on the 1st fret

     -If you are playing without a capo or on a piano
     just transpose everything up a half step
     which makes G an Ab, D an Eb, Bm a Cm, A a Bb,
     F# a G, and E an F.

     -The lead guitar part isn't according to capo because
     when you're up so high on the neck it becomes more of 
     a pain to think about going back or forward based on a
     capo that you're not even close to using at that moment.
     It's convient for me and helps me when I read but let me 
     know what you think, if it's more of a convenience or an 
     inconvenience.

     -If you are counting in 168bpm, the first and third
     chord of every Verse, Chorus, Interlude, and Bridge
     progression change on the 4th beat.
