UPDATE: Changed Pre-chorus, Post-chorus, Interlude 1, Interlude 2 and Outro
UPDATE: made slight changes to the post-chorus

NOTE: I don’t care if the intro is bass, the song is in standard, or if you drop down a
step, this is the way I tabbed it so live with it.

to it now and i think it sounds really good
