Tuning: standard
*sustain throughout*
I can't find a guitar version of this song. this is my adaptation of the mandolin
part. it sounds great with an eighth note delay if you have effects. pretty sure
the chorus needs some fixing but it's pretty close and sounds cool so whatever.

intro: fade in, repeat a few times w/crescendo
