Yeah, it's pretty simple and this is accurate, but it gets a little tricky here. This is 
first tab so i'm not sure what a slide is but my best guess it / so yeah.
/=Slide.

Ok, its pretty hard but it's simpler if you listen to the song. It has weird timing, but 
you get the rythm its not too hard. Now is the breakdown, this song has billions of 
hehe.
