I was aimlessly wandering around on youtube and I came around this performance from Matt Heafy that he did on a rooftop in paris and was very impressed from what I saw and heard. After about a dozen or so times of watching Matt play this song I also realized that this was a fairly simple song. If you're unsure about what video I'm speaking of, the link is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgZck6zmCCQ It maybe a little tough for beginners, due to all the little riffs and timing, but it's honestly not that hard after some persistent practicing. If you have any problems with the hitting the bass notes to the chords, rhythm, or when to palm mute, just watch the video in the link I gave you and it should help a lot. Once you've made your final judgement of the tab, please rate and comment. Tab Symbols: V = Vibrato H = Hammer-on / = Slide . = Palm Mute (Writing) = These are just my own personal notes for the reader. I recommend looking at them for specifics. Hopefully they help.
