Note: This was tabbed partially using a regular acoustic guitar while I didn'y have
access to a bass, so some notes might well be played lower on an actual bass guitar.
Paradoxically, I realised I tabbed some of the notes - especially the verses -
an octave down, just as a heads up. This was a labour of love, my god, and I can't
bet bothered to change it now, so please feel to improve on this, or just have fun. :)
