NOTE: I did a tab of this song when it first came out. I have recently found this old tab
of mine and have made many corrections to it. I wanted to in the past but could never
find it until now - AUGUST 2019 - to do so. It was the UG TEAM who submitted it under
TAB instead of CHORDS.
The new version is now the one I have placed here and is correct. Please keep this in
mind when rating this tab as it is now a 5 star tab in my opinion. Unfortunately, there
were some bad ratings previously before these changes were made and that is why this tab
is not a 5 star rating at this time but will be again with your help. Thanks
