KEY
o = open hihat for that beat of the bar as you hit it
x = hit the drum or cymbal (duh) 
one "-" = a 16th note

One this song the hihat needs to be very loose when it is used.  But most of the song is on the ride though at
first listen it sounds like the hahat.  You need a heavy but tinny ride to really get the full efect but you
could always
