Note: I noticed the guitar tabs currently for this song are pretty inaccurate, so I
to transcribe it myself. I tried to extract the guitar track best I could using SonicStage,
it made it easy to tab out being able to hear only the guitar track. I generalized most

This is probably about as accurate as you're gonna find. Enjoy.
