represents the time you play for... roughly... it's not hard to figure
out :) *

>>REPEAT INTRO PT.2<<
>>REPEAT VERSE<<
*Note - the verse is the same, but parts are missed out near the start
for when it's just the bass playing. there was no point tabbing it out,
as the notes are the same, so just listen to the song*
>>REPEAT CHORUS x 2<<

It's all there (basically), apart from extra notes here and there, but i'll
update the tab soon enough. Enjoy!
