This is my first tab and I think this is pretty accurate.
I've looked everywhere for a good tab for this song, But they
where all pretty mixed up so this is the best i can do to
translate it for all you looking for a decent tab of it.You'll
need an electric and an acustic for both parts. If you have any
questions just email me. Good Luck
