This is how I play it and it sounds much closer, in my opinion.) ??BURNING INSIDE (A. Jourgensen/P. Barker/W. Rieflin/C. Connelley)?? INTRO RIFF pm.

(Note: For chorus, when Al is screaming "Burning inside!" Play the tail end of the VERSE riff, but sped up.) ??NEVER BELIEVE (A. Jourgensen/P. Barker/C. Connelley)??

If anyone can figure it out, please upload it.) ??CANNIBAL SONG (A. Jourgensen/P. Barker/C. Connelley)?? (Note: There is no guitar in this song, just bass, drums, and saxophones. I figured the bass out on a guitar, so it may be a little off. The saxophones are beyond me.)

Jourgensen/P. Barker/W. Rieflin)?? (Note: There is no guitar in this song, just bass, drums, and samples. I figured out the bass on a guitar, so it might be a little off.) G |-----------------------------------| D |.--2------------------------------.| A |.---------------------------------.| E |-----0-0-0-2-3-2-3-0-0-0-0-2-3-2---| ??DREAM SONG (A. Jourgensen/P. Barker)?? (Note: This song is pretty much all keyboards and drum noises, I couldn't find any guitar to transcribe in it.) That's it. It sounds pretty much correct. The only area where I would say it might be wrong is in "Breathe," because I'm not really sure whether that first chord is an E5 or if it should be a D5, which would necessitate tuning down. I've played it both ways and find it kind of hard to tell the difference. However, that's the only one I'm not sure on. Enjoy.
