Tabbed by me
There is a tab of this already, however it is tabbed in an annoyingly and seemingly
pointlessly strange tuning (C#F#BE instead of EADG) so I have converted to EADG for ease
and simplicity.
Please comment and rate if this helps you, and if you have a correction please as I am
not completely sure if some of it is correct.

That's 8 quavers in one bar, then 6 quavers and a crotchet in the next.
Pretty much all the other bits are just 8 straight quavers.
