This is my first tab so please leave feedback, whether excruciatingly negative or 
insanely kind. If this is too complicated, try strumming the chords in the sound of the song. 
It still sounds pretty cool! I like to divide the song into 2 parts because I think it  
makes memorization easier. Thanks for reading, enjoy!
