Normal tuning.
I think this is an easy way to play the song. I'm not so sure about the solo, but it sounds okay.
The tab is looong because each part is a bit different from one another. It took me a whole
day to tab it out, so don't steal it and pretend you're the one who made this please..

-SOLO-
In this solo, "vibrato" all you can. I'm not 100% sure I tabbed it good, but it sounds alright.
It's hard to get the same sound as in the song... it takes a while.
