HolyRockJfreak - 2006-04-23

That's alot harder way to play it....it's right but it's harder to play the top string right on the 20th fret....


graysondh - 2006-04-29

The intro is played with a combination of power chords and octaves. the rest of the tab seems to be in key, but as the guy above me said, its a harder way to play it.


jkim519 - 2006-05-15

i think it's 0 then 2 then 0 not the 20th fret
u should really either bracket that or put parenthesis around if it's gona be a two digit numbered fret
