E|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Okay so this is my take on how the song is tabbed, got tired of waiting for
someone else, although that_i_am made a good attempt. Credit to him for the
clean interlude as I couldn't be bothered to try and figure it out myself
and it sounded pretty accurate to me.
