SORRY IF THIS IS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND, IT'S DIFFICULT TO TAB
OUT HOW I PLAY THIS SONG, BUT THIS IS THE CLOSEST I COULD COME
TO SHOWING YOU, WITHOUT ACTUALLY SHOWING YOU.
 
------------------------------------------------------------------
 
NOTE: The bass/root note for the Verse is what I will base the
"chord" off of for the lyrics, except the last part where it
goes up on the G-string(haha) from 2 to 4 to 6, I will base it off
the highest note and it will have a "^" to indicate it's not the
root note.
