Boy - Ra Ra Riot

This is my first tab, so the way I tabbed it and the timing may be a bit weird, and
could be wrong. The cello/violin in the background makes it hard to hear some notes, so if
think there is something that could be fixed please do comment, but keep it constructive.

I used Amazing Slow Downer to slow everything down, so I'm pretty sure that most of it
accurate.

Tuning: Standard

"Thought I left my life, oh"... :31
