I give most of the credit to paperbagheart for this tab, I just copy and pasted it and
transposed it up to Capo 2 (and made the chords sit more rhythmically above the lyrics).
CAPO 2
Okay so here's the main riff in the beginning. I do the hammer on to the fifth fret with
my pinky and barre the D string with my pinky to pick the fifth frets.
