Standard Tuning (E A D G B E)
I'm not sure whether all chords in this song really are powerchords, but played
this way it sounds at least acceptable :) (guitars aren't that clear on this
album...) Anyway, if you think something is not correct: just let me know.
All chords should be played very fast (and even far more often than indicated);
listen to the song for the exact amount, speed, timing etc.

9th time, omit last chord
Sometimes, it sounds like this riff is played somewhat different; this could
be a second guitar (tremolo-picking only the notes on the G-string), but
it could also be the following replacement for the riff above:
