For the timing, just listen to the song to feel how it goes

I havent learned past this point yet, and i dont know the chords that go with melody B. Thats what i went online to try to find, only to learn that
everyone's a retdard that doesnt know one ounce of music theory or the best(most expedient)way to play melodies. You know i dont really care if people know
music theory or not, its just that if your gonna post a tab, make sure you know what the hell your doing and get it right. thank you
 
Just a side note, if you notice, each little pattern in melody B outlines a chord, thats all the guys doin.
