Ok this can actually be really easy and when i wrote the tab i thought to
 
myself "woah that looks hard", if you write it out in music it's easy to play.
 
I decided to tab what i play cos the other tab was poor... enjoy.

Practise very slowly without the bass drum at first, then as you learn the
 
accents from the snare ghosts the bass notes will come naturally with the
 
accents.

Your best bet if u don't wanna learn it all over again with the hi hat notes
 
is just to play them on top while you play the main thing.

This is pretty much played for the rest of the song with a few variations.
 
When you play this bit play all the normal hi hat notes with a tap stroke then
 
play all the open hi hat notes and hi hat notes where a snare is played with a
 
whip stroke.
