Ok, I decided to tab this song as well since the tab that is already found in
this site didn't convince me. The song is pretty good, of my personal favorites
of this album. =) I think this is a pretty accurate tab. Have fun and any
correction is welcomed!

Comments about this tab

Great song, great tab! I give it a 5, thnx man!

I haven't chekced the whole tab out, but I tried your intro riff, and I think it should be in octaves, like the other guy posted.
Jdc

no man the octaves were wrong. it should be

e------------0000000000-----------------------
b--7-7-7-7-7-----------5-5-5-5-5-5------------
g--9-9-9-9-9-----------7-7-7-7-7-7---7-7-7-7-7
d------------------------------------7-7-7-7-7
a------------------------------------5-5-5-5-5
E------------0000000000-----------------------

it sounds good to me. Please corect me if im wrong.

I think the intro goes something like this:

e-------------------------------------|
b-------------------------------------|
G-11-11-11-1111--9-99--9-9-9-99--7-77-|
D--9--9--9--9-9------x-xx--7-7-7-77--x-xx-|
A----------------------7-77------------5-55-|
E-------------------------------------|
