Note: This song is really played on a 5-String Bass if I could get my hands on
one I would tab that out but I can't so here you go.

Tuning:Here is Stephen's REAL tuning G#,C#,F#,B,E,G#,C#. Thats 4 1/2 steps down
from regular tuning and 2 1/2 steps down for 7 string. I play these on a regular
Guitar so I don't have the extra C# but it still sounds 99-100% correct.
