~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Author's note:
G|--7 ... can be G|--7 ... or G|--7-|D|--* ... can be D|--5 ... or D|--7-|
... depending on your playing style (even though I believe 7-5 is the right one). Just
the G-string finger to the 7.
I tried to tab this in a way that it sounds the same as the real song but is also easy to play.
I think this tab can pass as the song as-is, but any and all corrections are appreciated.
