The `ChainID` is also appended to the end.
We call this encoding the SignBytes. For instance, SignBytes for a vote is the Amino encoding of the following struct:
```go
type CanonicalVote struct {
Type byte
Height int64 `binary:"fixed64"`
Round int64 `binary:"fixed64"`
VoteType byte
Timestamp time.Time
