this tab is at least 90% good. i may have left some notes out because a lot of notes
are left ringing in this song. i'm writing this tab in standard tuning, but it's pretty
apparent that its performed 1/2 step down.
verse theme A - done 3x up to verse theme B. note -> listen to the
song to know what to keep pressing down, and when to let up off the strings. i put some
notes in parentheses because it might be picked there or might not... i play it as not
being there, but it sounds cool both ways (imo).

verse theme B (3:29). repeated until end. note that verse theme B
continued throughout bridge 2, but it's tough to play both as a lone guitarist.
translation of symbols
----------------------
\ = slide down
b = bend. if the preceding note is lower, this means bend up. if
it's higher, it means bend down.
p = pull off
