As far as I can tell, the majority of the song (Intro, Verse and Chorus) are the same
set of chords. Because of this I have just labelled it 'Main Riff'. The only time the main
riff isn't played is during the breakdown after the second chorus but even then it's 
just a simplified version. I have left out some of the small changes in the breakdown (when
it palm mutes etc.) for the sake of making the tab more readable.

It's important to note that, at least to me, the song sounds better if you don't stick
rigidly to the tab. Add some extra strums and experiment ;)

To come up with this tab I watched some of the cover by 'Dragon2712' on youtube so he
deserves some credit for this. Couldn't get the exact notes because of the video quality
but it gave me enough of an idea that it wouldn't feel right not mentioning.

I did this tab over the space of half an hour, only learning it myself about half an
hour before or during for certain parts, so there are bound to be some mistakes but since
there weren't any other tabs for the acoustic version of the song I decided to upload 
regardless. Please let me know if you find any errors and I'll change them as soon as I 
get a chance.
