[Aside: I tried as much as I could to depict the relationship between the rhythm
of the lyrics and the chords. It is intricate so if there are any mistakes it is
only in when you should play the chords, the chords themselves are almost
certainly correct! However, this is my first tablature so excuse any errors!]
