Bass lines
You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up, be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it F♯now

Guitar 2: at "Why don't you stop...", your
fingers must be VERY FAST in this part
Josh Farro did a SEMI SWEEPING here,
it's difficult at first but once you
master this part, it's easy as 1,2,3.
