This tab's layout is different from my others because I originally

didn't plan to post it. However, this song was so easy, and after I

tabbed it and started to play it seriously with the song, It sounded

really good and I just had to share it.

|--33-33--333333--|-scrape-|

|--11-11--111111--|---/\---|

^^Fig.1 is rhyhm guitar. It opens the song, and proceeds for two notes after

the pick scrape before guitar 1 starts playing Fig.2^^

Fig. 2

|--1--2--1-|--1--------1---1--------1---1--------1--|

^^After Fig.2, play the rhythm guitar part until the verse comes in (which is

only about a few notes)^^

Fig. 3

^^Fig.3 is the verse, and it repeats until you hear the rhythm guitar again. Those

last three palm muted chords are there give or take, they don't really matter.^^

Then the rhythm guitar starts playing for longer time. Moderate Fig.1 by adding palm

muted chords where they are needed in the song. It's very easy, and I reccommend just

playing it as you hear the song.

|--3--1-----3--||--------3----------3--1-2--|

^^Fig.4 is the chorus, and 4a is the part after it. You can add a couple more palm muted

0s then bar your finger over the two strings again if you want, it basically optional

how you play the song. Any way the song will sound the same.^^

^^Then 4a is that part after Fig.4 plays 4x (8x for the very last chorus). This goes a little

fast, but getting it right is pretty easy.^^
