Tabbed by: Declan Hyland

Tuning: Standard eBGDAE
This is my first tab so if it's hard to read, it means I haven't gotten the hang of this yet.
I haven't finished tabbing the lead bits and solos, so I've included the start and end
the solo, and a few lead bits. It seems to be based on the G major/minor pentatonics anyway.
Guitar 1: Acoustic
Guitar 2: Rhythm Electric
Guitar 3: Lead Electric
Bridge: Guitar 1
