I've tried to create a tab for this by watching videos of the song and various covers to see what people are
playing, there may be some mistakes, but perhaps this will be decent foundation for someone with a better ear
to build up from. This is one of the main riffs repeated throughout the song.
This song uses some percussive playing, I don't know a standard way of noting the percussive parts so I'll
add letters above the tab to mean various things.
If it's confusing then try watching footage of the song to see what I mean:
B - Bass drum-esque sound, use your wrist above the strings or heel of your palm on the bottom right.
S - Snare-ish sound? Use your middle finger to slap the lower side of the guitar, move position for different
sounds.
