PICKING RIFF 1(Clean) - This part starts off at the beginning along with

the intro chords and repeats 2x but it's connected to the first half of

the verse(repeat another 2x). And then it comes in right after the first

chorus(repeat 2x) and is connected to the first half of the second verse

(repeat another 2x for this as well). Then it is played 2x at the very

end. When you listen to the song you'll know what I mean.

PRE-CHORUS - This is the part that comes right after the verse and just

before the chorus. the x's, in this case, mean PALM muted(so do the ones

in my "For The Band" tab).

MAIN CHORUS - Let it ring out with lots and lots of dist. On the second

and last chorus this is repeated 2x. There is another guitar in there

doing fill in parts, but they're pretty easy to figure out so I'm almost

sure you'll figure it out by listening to the song. Unless you've never

played a guitar before.

PICKING RIFF 2(Clean) - This is played right after the second chorus ONLY

and it is different than "PICKING RIFF 1". And funner to play too.

AFTER "PICKING RIFF 2" RIFF - This is the part that comes right after

"Picking Riff 2". This part uses distortion. Some parts of it are PALM

MUTED and some parts are STOPPED after each chord strum to make it sound

sort of choppy. I labeled where to do that kind of stuff so you don't have

to figure it out yourself. Aren't I nice?

After this the chorus is played a few times again and the song ends

of with "Picking Riff 1" repeating 2 times. and that pretty much covers

everything. THIS IS EXACTLY RIGHT. I even played along with the actual

song to make SURE that it was not off. There IS another guitar that pops

in a couple of times but not very often and only to do little fill-in

parts. Most of the song is just one guitar.

HAVE FUN AND GOD BLESS!!!
