Pace: 145bpm

Hi, guys! The title track is here! Aaaaaand, sadly, it's not as popular as the other tracks 
before the release
of the full album, probably due to its non-heaviness. The ballad - I'll call it - is quite 
melodic
and very sing-a-long-y. It's so feel-good, ugh. I learned this song by ear. Initially, I was 
confused by
the intro (or the main riff) but then I realised the bass is actually playing the lower notes...
 Oh, me...

The timings shown are for the YouTube official music video, though I'm sure they'll be 
relatively accurate
for
other versions, such as Spotify or other videos. For help with timing, the quavers of each bar 
are represented
by the "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & ". Side note: some of the sections have had the spacing
between the "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &" modified to accommodate for those pesky double 
digit frets and
keep everything in line. Rhythm is important. For further guidance, I've also added lyrics 
alongside some of
the sections, so you don't lose track of where you are.

I've put the guitar parts next to each other in their relative sections rather than tabbing all 
of
guitar 1 and then all of guitar 2 so it'll be easier to see what's going on when. Sometimes, 
there's an
additional guitar (Guitars 3) for the extra melodies introduced. This is a recorded guitar and 
was laid
on top of Matt and Padge's guitars.

Enjoy the tab!

Guitar 2 rests for the intro

Guitar 1 repeats the intro riff twice, but still does the four muted strums at the end

Verse 2 - (1:19 - 1:45) - Same as Verse 1, except at the end, Guitar 1 plays two F power
chords (5,5,5) followed by another two power chords before playing the four muted strums to lead
 in to the
next chorus. Guitar 2 plays as normal.

Chorus (1:45 - 2:12) - At the very end, instead of leaving the last chord to ring, keep 
strumming it
and follow through with four muted strums.
