I also want to credit "Ponchofras" for making a cover of this song that helped me figure out how it's played. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tuI68sGKyY) I've made some minor changes to what he plays but I based the tab on his cover.Was this info helpful?

(The outro tab I've written is changed slightly throughout the part. I'd recommend playing with it
a little bit to keep things fresh.)
