This minimal tab can't convey all the nuances necessary to play the
song, but the following notation is used to help somewhat:
h hammer.
p pull.
w() bend to note in parentheses.
s slide in tempo.
/ grace note slide up (may have start of slide before / or not).
\ grace note slide down.
b brush multiple strings.

For melody and lyrics please see recording.
