Man... This chart is actually really good. I got really surprised when they put in the Oompa Loompa part, it was really faithful to the original movie, as was the "golden ticket" riff. This chart is really enjoyable and experimental with what the original had to offer, and anyone who plays this ought to be satisfied!
