This  16:43 long song on this tab has been divided into 4 Parts To make it easier for
to find where you are. I added names of things I thought of when I listened and played
the section of the song.  Within this song is some of the best, and craziest stuff.
tab took me a long time to do, so make the best of it! OH and the accuracy of when the 
occur, because I must've got the leaked version. Good Luck and Enjoy.

*** Not Everything is Perfect, there are mistakes in here, however these are just
to give you a good idea of how the song goes.***

============================================================
Guitar Solo @ 7:55 ------------------------------------------|This solo is NOT correct,
just use the scale involved and to try imatate Omar, but I tried to tab it as best I
but my patience is limited to how accurate this is.

and complicated.

Outro @ 15:11 is the same as the Intro, with some soloing. If you do some unison bending
related to the key of B minor, you should be good
**remember these times are placed for the leaked version, I was unaware of this, but yea 
should be able to work with it**
