This is my first tab submitted and it took me way longer than it really should have
because it's really a very simple song, but it bugged me that nobody else had done it
because it's one of the very best songs I've ever heard and more more people should be
able to play it! Sorry if any of the timings or chords are off, but I'm pretty sure
they're right.
