My first tab. Let me know if there sounds like there might be an error somewhere.
If you have some degree of music theory down,
you can also play the higher-note parts in a
lower octave and it still sounds good.
Note: This is NOT the theme song of the show
that plays at the beginning with
"I want to be, the very best!".
Here is the song I'm tabbing, for reference and timing:

h - hammer-on
p - pull-off
b - bend
~ - vibrato (or) let ring
/ - slide up
\ - slide down
. - Palm Mute
^ - Pick (while sliding, pick the string/note as soon as you reach the fret)
( ) - Optional Note (If it sounds like too much, you can leave these out)
[Drop D Tuning]
