Intro starts off like this: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------10--------------9---9-8--------10------------9--9-8---------------| E|---0-0-0----0-0-0-0-0-0---0-------0-0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0--0-------------------| It continues on that part for a while, and once the full band kicks in, these notes are played over the main riff: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---7~-----------13~-----------7~-----------13~-----------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| The verse continues on the main riff with the notes on the E string muted. After the verse, it hits this pre-chorusy sort of part; like this: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------6-----5-----4-----9-6--------6-----5-----4-----9-6----------------| A|---------6-----5-----4-----9-6--------6-----5-----4-----9-6----------------| E|---4-4-4---4-4---4-4---4-4-7-4--4-4-4---4-4---4-4---4-4-7-4----------------| e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------6-----5-----4-----9-6--------5-----4-----3-----8-5----------------| A|---------6-----5-----4-----9-6--------5-----4-----3-----8-5----------------| E|---4-4-4---4-4---4-4---4-4-7-4--3-3-3---3-3---3-3---3-3-6-3----------------| Then it goes back to the second verse. After that, it comes back into the pre-chorus part. Then the chorus: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---7-7^8-----------------------7-7^8---------------------------------------| D|---7-7^8-8--7--2-5--7--2-------7-7^8-8--7--2-5--7--2-----------------------| A|---5-5^6-8--7--2-5--7--2-------5-5^6-8--7--2-5--7--2-----------------------| E|---------6--5--0-3--5--0-------------6--5--0-3--5--0-----------------------| Then, at around 2:56, it goes to this bridge-like part: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---5--4--------------------------5--4--------------------------------------| D|---5--4---5--4----2~-------------5--4---5--4----2~-------------------------| A|---3--2---5--4----2~-------------3--2---5--4----2~-------------------------| E|----------3--2----0~--------------------3--2----0~-------------------------| After that cool jam, it goes back into the main riff, which is played throughout the solo. The solo is just like this: e|---15----------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---18^20~~~~^18-15-12-15^17-15^17--15-12-----------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------------14^16-12------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------15-14^15^14^15^14-12----12--14^16-12--------------| G|---------12-14-14^16-12-----------------------14---------------14-12-------| D|---12-14--------------------------------------------------------------12-10| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------17~~----| G|---12~~--12-------12----------12--12^13-----------------12-14^16~~---------| D|------------11-------11----11---------------------12-14--------------------| A|---------------10-------10---------------12-13-14--------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| e|---15-12-15----------------------------------------------------------------| B|------------14-15-12-10----------------------------------------------------| G|------------------------12-14-14^16^14-12-------12^14^12-------------------| D|-------------------------------------------14-12---------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| e|----------------------------------17-19-19^21~~~---------------------------| B|--------------------12-15-17--15-------------------------------------------| G|----------12-12h14---------------------------------------------------------| D|---12h14-------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
