I got this song before the album was released. I was bored I guess. Anyway, I gave it my best shot, and it's porlly not perfect, so if you got any corrections, sugestions, questions, whatever, E-mail me at jhk6557369@aol.com.
Key: / - slide to next fret
b - bend up
h - hammer on
p - pull off.
x - put finger over the string just hard enough to mute the note and hit.
There's two guitars. I'm gonna try to cover both parts. No solos or anything, nice easy song to paly with a friend.
There's a bass part too, but I don't paly bass. lol. so get someone else to do it.

Play notes
(He strums each barre cord different every time, so just listen tot he song to get
the rhythem. For example near the end of the verse he starts stumming each cord
8 times (up and down) once he hits the E cord. or he'll hit strum, the strum the
same cord quickly right before changing cords)
Verse 1 (second time)-
On the second time around he doesnt play it as before,
instead he strums F# and E each 4 times, over and over.
F# E F# E
So tired, tired of waitn'

This is technically a rhythem verse, but because its not in drop D and its got the same
distortion as the lead guitar, I'm guessing its played by the lead guitar.
