You'll find that most of it is right but some of the guitar parts are a little off but they do sound right. CHORDS USED: ============ E (022400) D (x57775) A (577655) C (x35553) G (355433) Intro: ====== |----------------| You'll know what I mean. I can tab |----------------| this part out. It's all those E's. |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| |--0--0--0--0-etc| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------------0--| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--0-0-0--12x12--0-0-0--3x3---0-0-0--5x5--0-0-0--6h7-----| This is the main intro riff and the main riff what is used in the verses. It is play twice on it's own then this is played over the top of it: |--20--20--20--| Then this is played over and over. |--------------| Until the intro ends.... |--------------| |--------------| |--------------| |--------------| |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |------------------------14s-7----| |------------------------14s-7----| |--0-0-0--12x12--0-0-0---12s-5----| Verse 1: (I think the intro riff is played) ========

C G D A |-------------------------------| This is played over |-1-------0------3-------2------| last two lines in |---0-------0------2-------2----| the chorus |-----2-------2------0-------2--| |-------------------------------| |-------------------------------|

This part is played |--8h10--10-10-8------------------------------------------------.. twice. The next bit is |----------------9-8-7---7--5-----------------------------------.. quite hard. It's easier |----------------------7----------------------------------------.. to do on a gibson Les Paul |-----------------------------| rather than on a Fender Strat.--.. |---------------------------------------------------------------.. A ~ ~ ~ ~ |--------------------------| The chord A is played |--------------------------| once and it is not strummed! |--------------------------| |--7p5p0-7p5p0-7p5p0-7p5p0-| |--------------------------| |--------------------------| Intro Riff: =========== Guitar Solo: ============ |--12---12----17-15----------------------------| |--15br-15br---------12-------------15---------| |------------------------14-12--14b-----r--s12-| |----------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------| |--------------------------------| |--12h14-12----------------------| |-----------14-------------------| |--------------12-14-12----------| |------------------------14--12--| Verse 3: (As verse 1) ======== Chorus: ======= Coda: ===== |--------------------------------------| Play twice |--------------------------------------| |--5-5-X-X-----------7-7-X-X-----------| |--5-5-X-X--5-5-X-X--7-7-X-X--7-7-X-X--| |--3-3-X-X--5-5-X-X--5-5-X-X--7-7-X-X--| |-----------3-3-X-X-----------5-5-X-X--| Then play the second part of the chorus lead twice.
