  This song always gave me the goosebumps it is so good, the bass was a bit hard to figure out, but
I had to learn this song.
Play with the song below to perfect timing, some chord changes are also provided.

The bass is insanely hard to hear in the chorus but Im pretty certain this is the chord
progression, as for the notes, this is the best I could do.
You can add in some slight variations with the Db, this would get way to messy if I tabbed every change.
