This is only the start part at this stage but it is
surely the hardest part.

1/2 step down

Bass is 1/2 step down, but also dropped D (actually Db)

You will work out the pattern of the song.
First it plays 1a then 1b, then the next it plays
1a a couple of times before going to 1b.

The chord that is strummed on each beat later in is the
following:

e-9--|
B-10-|
G-11-|
D-12-|
A----|
E----|

That's about all I have at the moment. Most of it is correct.
Maybe a couple of notes are wrong in that section that changes
to the barred twelvth fret.

Send me any comments please. I like to hear from people who
actually use these tabs.
