thats about all you need to know, unless you wanna put the guitar noise in at the beging 
of my arrangement of the bass part.

i haven't put the piece in running order, figured i'd give you a challenge!

if you can try and play the different versions of the chords which i have indicated in 
right place to get the full affect of the song.
