**************************************************************************************************************
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE ATTEMPTING! thanks :)
Even though this song is tuned a half step down, the chords shown are still represented as if it was in
standard tuning for clarification purposes. Every chord shown is tabbed out at the bottom of he page in the
exact order and way they could easily be played. UG's chord charts might not be the best way to play them;
Especially in the last section.
