this is my first tab ever, using this tab thing, but i
believe that this is the most accurate version on the
internet. you can do whatever you want to make it
sound better. the song's hard to get first, but it's easy
to play after a few tries. i didn't put timing coz i don't know how. =D
just don't give up. hurts the fingers, but whatever. have fun with
it!
The song structure goes:
Intro

Verse 2
