BlooDShot-EyeZ...why do you insist on putting that junk on here? You are not even close to being correct and that is certainly not the proper way to play this song. This tab is spot on 100% correct. Although I suspect it was taken from the actual sheet music. I purchased the official sheet music for this song and this tab is correct. If you want to learn it the proper way print off this tab.
