accurate still, just different positioning.

...and that's it! I have a recording of me playing this, but I haven't uploaded it to
YouTube or anything because it'd probably get pulled since the album's release date
hasn't actually arrived yet (7/16). I also have Gunfight ready to be tabbed, but since
most live videos of that start after the song has already started, I'm waiting to hear
the start
of the song to submit that tab.
Hope any part of this helped with learning the song.
