Government Flu Tab

All the other tabs I've seen for this song have been shitty and I'm sick of it,
so I present to you my own.  It's not dead-on but if you listen to the song,
it's pretty close and a whole lot easier to figure out.  The timing here is
roughly accurate, once again listen to the song to fully figure it out.

You'll also see I tabbed the entire song without any shortcuts. That may seem
repetitive but hopefully it'll help you out.
