The timing and structure are not 100% accurate, this is an outline, you need
to listen to where the parts go and proper timing.

I didn't include any of the fills, that will be great ear training.  The key
is F# Minor and he pretty much just jams on the pentatonics.  The slap part
at the end is easy enough to figure out from there, especially when you
youtube the master bass track.
