*Hey! Well, I tried my best to make that tab perfect but in the end of this song I got a
little confused so I don`t know if it`s right. If there`s any correction to make, feel
free to do it. Another thing: I used an ukulele to find the chords, so it MAY sound
strange when played with another instrument. This tab will help you to make another, but more
detailed, tab. That`s it! Enjoy my first tab!*
