This song isn't a total tragedy but the solo makes me say 'What the f***?!' these notes don't sound good together and this rhythm is just a mind fuck. >____< I don't like this song...but on to SP.

Do other people use 3, 3, 2, 2?

I enjoy listening to this song, but I can't stand playing it. I never can decide whether to alt strum the GG RBs or downstrum them. I'm not sure if I'll ever FC this.

Here's what I've got, I noticed this was one of very few songs without a picture of SP in the forum. I really have no idea if the ending or starting points are even right. This is my first ever posting of one of these. If something is wrong please correct it.

Your starting points are all right once you correct that thing in the first activation I told you about. I'm not sure where everything's going to end, so wait on my numbercrunching.
