NOTE: This tab is for the version linked to the video above
   which is the short version of the song.

   The one that UG has at the bottom of the page is the
   longer version and not the one that I tabbed out.

   The main differences are that in the longer version
   the INTRO is played twice and at the end of my tab
   the CHORUS is played multiple times and using
   additional lyrics.

   This tab would also suit that version as well keeping
   This in mind.
