I've seen a bunch of tabs for this song that have minor inaccuracies, so I'm just going
tab out the part for the first guitar. I'm pretty sure this version sounds the most like
album version of the song. Also, you can just play the top of barre chords if you like.
for not writing out the rhythm, but this song is easy enough that you should be
to pick it up pretty quickly.
