Tune to dropped D and half a step down, so you're tuned C# G# C# F# A# D# I think they might just tune their
guitars down 1 and 1/2 steps, but that's a pain in the ass so I do it this way. It makes it easier to play anyway.
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
h = hammer-on
p = pull off
b = bend (12b13b12 means bend the string fretted at the 12th fret up one half step, then release it to it's normal
pitch)

Chorus
There's two separate guitar parts for the chorus, and a little fill at the end. I'll put the rhythm under the lead so
you can see when to hit the chords on the rhythm part.
Lead part

The last time, when the rhythm is playing the low C# and then the A on the first fret, there's a little fill that goes like this:
------18----------18----------------------
-20p18-20----20p18-20p18-20---20p18-------
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
I think there's actually a 3rd guitar part on the recording that plays something else and ends with that little fill, but it's too
hard to discern from the recording. This is a problem that gets worse as the song goes on. I think there's like 6 guitars playing
at the very end.
Next part
--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
---7-7---------8---7--------8--3-------3---3------------------
---7-7----------8---7-------8---3------3---3------------------
-0-0--5--5-----3--5--6---5---0-3-5--6---1----2--1--2-1---2--3-
-0-0----------3--5---------0-3-5----------2---2----2--3-------
The second and fourth time you play this, instead of playing -2-3- at the end, play this:
-2-3-
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
-2/3--3--3/5--5-------------------------------------------
-2/3--3--3/5--5-------------------------------------------

-5------6---1------------3-----0--------0---6-6-6-6-6----------
-5----------------------3-----0-------0------------------------
At this point the guitar chugs away at the low C#, (listen to the record for the rhythm, it would be pointless totry to tab it out on
here), hits the weird D chord, then goes back into the verse and repeats everything that's been played so far. There's another guitar
part that goes over the last part the I tabbed out for you that's run through a wah-wah pedal and a phaser of some kind, but I'll let
you figure that out (come on, it's two notes, and I've figured out everything else for you!) Anyway, after that it goes back and forth
between the C# and the D while slowing down, and hits a final C#. Then comes the beginning of the big finale.
Lead part
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----3--3---------3--3----------3---------6p3--3-----------------------------
-- --------3-----------3------3--3-----3-----5b7-(7)b5p3--3-----2------------
---3--------3---3--------3---3-----3-----3---------------------3---3/5-(5)---
-1------------1------------0-------0------------------------------5----------
---------------------------------------------------------------0-------------
All notes besides the low C# are played as harmonics
-----------------------
-----4-----------------
-----5-------4---------
------------5----------
-----------------------
-0--------0------------
Then a rhythm part comes in. You'll have to listen to the record for the timing, but here's the chords:
-------------------------------
-------------------------------
-3--------3--------------------
-3----4----3----0--------------
-1----4----1----0--------------
-----4--------0----------------
Then this:
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-
-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-
-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-
Then that part speeds up to double time. Now here's the part that's a real pain in the ass to explain, but really not that difficult. The last
thing for this tab is a series of different parts; they're a SERIES because they come in one after another in the song. You are just going to
have to look at this and listen to the record to figure it out. The way I would play it with a band is to have both guitars play the part above
this paragraph together, then as one guitar plays the sped up version of that riff, the other plays the first part below, then while the other
guitar plays the first part below, the one guitar switches to the second part below, etc. I hope that's not too confusing, it's actually pretty
easy except the way I word things might screw you up. So here goes:
Part #1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-8-8-8-8-8-8-10-10-10-10-10-10-11-11-11-11-11-11-10-10-10-10-10-10-----

Part #2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-8----8----8----8----8----8----8----8----8----8----8----8----6----6----6----6----6----6----6----6----6----6----6----6------
-11b13-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-(13)-9b11-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)-(11)--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part #3 (tremolo pick these notes; use the same timing as the last two parts)
-15------17------18------17-----------------------
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
Part #4 (tremolo pick the first note)
-24--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
