No, it's not the most masculine song I could tab, but I picked it up by ear and decided 
make a tab on this.
My first tab, by the way, so correct me on mistakes please.
It took a ridiculous amount of time for me to get, so try it before rating.

Tuning: Standard

First Part (Play this twice)

The chords switch up a bit at the end, very easy to find out.
