Notes:
-4/4 time, bar lines do indicate timing
-Dots (...) located under any staff are for timing, and indicate where the
 downbeats (1234) fall
-1st staff of the verses - the rhythm tabbed for the E5 and D5 chords is
 probably not the exact rhythm (hard to hear exactly what rhythm the guitars
 are playing there).
