INTRO (0:00)
Db|--2~~~--| Easy!
After that, one guitar plays the low Eb string (open) over and over
for sixteen measures. A second guitar plays natural harmonics starting
at the twelth fret and slides all the way down, then back up again
for all sixteen measures.

A lot of tabs I've seen show the Cb5 chord erroniously played on the Ab
string. If you listen to the recording carefully, you can hear the slide.
This makes the song oddly similar to Doomsday Clock. (Shrug). This whole
song is composed almost entirely of triplets, thus why most of the chords are
played in multiples of three.

It's amazing how off some of the tabs were for the chorus. There's
also a second guitar playing clean in the backgroud, but it's too quiet
to make out and be worth tabbing.
POST-CHORUS INTERLUDE BRIDGE THING (1:04)

PM . . . . . . . .
You play this part in this order:
Riff A
Riff B
Riff A
Riff B
Riff A
Riff A
Play the palm muted parts with only downstrokes.
There's a specific rhythm (That I poorly tabbed) for this part.
Where the rest of the song is mostly "Play-really-fast-and-pretend-
like-you're-paying-triplets" This is a lot more distinct. Listen
to the recording to figure out how to play it exactly. Also, the
last time you play Riff A there's a slight difference at the very
end. Once again, listen for it.
BUILDUP TO THE FIRST SOLO (1:22)
| Eb | |
| Bb | |

| Ab | 4 4//7 7 7//8 8 8//9 9 9 |
| Eb | 2 2//5 5 5//6 6 6//7 7 7 |
Then one guitar plays the low Eb string (again), and the second guitar
plays natural harmonics down from the twelfth fret (again) for two measures.
FIRST GUITAR SOLO (1:33)
Oh, boy. Here we go. First guitar plays the verse riff four times,
and the second guitar does something a little harder.
To make life easy, I broke up all the lead parts in the tab
into phrases. So, yeah, each box is a phrase, not a measure.

| Eb | |

| Ab | 7~~ |
| Eb | |
There, that wasn't too bad, now was it?
VERSE (1:46) & INTERLUDE
The rhythm guitar for the verse is the same as the begining. For
the interlude, play Riff A four times. There's also a lead bit:
Soloage: (1:57)
| Eb | 12 10 |
| Bb | 12 10b11r10 8\5~~ 13/15~~ |
| Gb | |
| Db | |
| Ab | |
| Eb | |
Listen for where all this stuff goes.
PRECHORUS (2:07)
Same as the prechorus in the begining... with a guitar solo.
This is where the lead starts to get really sweet. :D
| Eb | 14* |
| Bb | 17b19 15h17p15 | * | 'm not sure if that 14 is |

CHORUS (2:16)
Same as the first one. And there's no lead to worry about!
SECOND GUITAR SOLO (2:32)
Because these solos are completely outside of my playing abillity,
(Not to mention, I don't have enough frets on my guitar) this is
based off of the Guitar Pro file by Scott McClelland. I used it
without permission. Rock on!!!
(Well, my version *is* completely different from his,
so I don't feel guilty for using it. But just know I couldn't
have done it without his version.)

QUIET INTERLUDE (2:50)
Featuring some of Billy's favorite chords!
Just strum along, get a feel for the rhythm
from the recording. Easy.

| Ab | 2 0 2 3 2 0 |
| Eb | 3 2 0 0 |
And, the lead, of course. Keep going with that 17 bend,
and then play:
| Eb | 15 13*b |
| Bb | | * That 13 is an |
| Gb | | artificial harmonic. |
| Db | |
| Ab | | (Yet you bend it up higher anyways.) |
| Eb | |
Then comes some weird-ass noise that I have
no clue how to tab, so I'll just put x's!
| Eb | x |
| Bb | x |
| Gb | x 12b14r12 11 9 11 9\7~ 9b11 9b11r9 7 9 |

| Ab | 7 9 | | 0 2 |
| Eb | 5 7 | | |
THIRD AND FINAL SOLO!!! (3:13)
Play that verse riff seven times. Then play:
| Eb | |
| Bb | |
| Gb | |
| Db | 4 4//7 7 7//8 8 8//9 9 9 |
| Ab | 2 2//5 5 5//6 6 6//7 7 7 |

| Db | |
| Ab | 4 4//7 7 7//8 8 8//9 9 9 |
| Eb | 2 2//5 5 5//6 6 6//7 7 7 |
Which should seem familliar. Then play those crazy harmonics,
just like how you played them in the intro, and we're almost done!
By the way, I've must've listened to this song about 11,000
fucking times by now, figuring this all out. You're welcome.
Now for the last solo piece: (Sniff, sniff)

This is a bit confusing:

| Bb | 17b19b20 | Basically, you're |
