If you wish to use this tab for any editing purposes or guitar tutorials/videos
please reference me as I took many hours making this and feel that I deserve some credit 
for making the tab,
I take no credit for the song however. Sorry, couldn't work out the solo.

(*This little section here leads straight into the next part of the verse*)
The number of times I wrote the chords is irrelevant; there are a number of rhythms to 
strum these chords so I didn’t quite know the best way to explain it. These are just the 
chords; you must work out the picking pattern yourself.
