I've searched all over the net, and found no complete/accurate tabs to
this song, which surprised me because this song is, to me, one of the
best rock songs in the last 10 years. So here it is...two guitar parts
in the intro, second guitar uses flanger as well as other riffs throughout
the song, but I'm sure you'll pick up which effects go where. I wrote all
the riffs with bars in the middle so you can break down the guitar parts and
then put it all together.
Tuning is in dropped-D

Play the outro, and you should be fine. Obviously I didn't keep the whole
song in order because it's a pretty advanced song and should be played by
experienced players, so I have faith in your ability to play the riffs in the
right order ;) peace. nofreakinway@punkmusic.com
