I tried to capture the way EODM played the song live at Lollapalooza 2016
This version differes from album version in which some parts are not played, but they are mostly identical
You can see that many parts are just the same notes but in defferent positions on the fretboard
It's not necessary to play it the way I tabbed it so feel free to use the most comfortable positions for you
