After the chorus it goes back into the intro/verse part. There's a bridge that gets
played twice during the song as well.
 
The bridge will be coming soon, but should be simple to figure out for whomever wants to
try it

Is everybody who's submitted a tab for this song smoking crack? None of these sound right.

Tab incomplete.
