This is my very first tab. Please let me know if there are any mistakes.
I am sick and tired of people writing tabs that have the "F" chord in them
for this song. THIS TAB IS THE CLOSEST TO BEING CORRECT ON THE
INTERNET!! I even wrote up the intro. It's not 100% correct but it's
damn close for being transposed from multiple guitars.
