Notes: Since I got no response from my original post, I've decided to ditch the capo and go with
bar chords, in hopes of hitting a different audience (rockers). With male vocals, I find
playing this a step or 2 down sounds better to me. Since these are all E-form bars, you can
easily play around with them to fit your style (ie, same formations, just move down a fret).
Oh yeah, and pretty much slide between all chords!
Riff:

Alt Riff: (I find this a little high pitch/gay for me. The song is also really fast, so I
often play this. Basically, you can pick/strum anything in C# and A that goes low, mid, high,
mid and it sounds good)
