Tabbed and Revised By: MrFloyd (rbgoud@excite.com)

This is a revision of my original version, which didn't have the solo and had
lyrics written incorrectly.

It's not too hard.  Pretty easy, really, but a lot of fun to play.

All Power Chords, I think

Use Distortion

Intro:

A  C  A  E	 G     x2

A  C  A  E								x1

Verse 1:
1x with no words  2x "I dreamed about this..."

G  C  B  G  E 				x2

G  C  B  G        x1

Pre-Chorus:

E  G  C  B  E     x4

Chorus:

C  A  B  E  C  A  B (hold)

Verse 2:

On the last run.  Just hit the first note (e 16) then slide down
making sure every note sounds.  That's the only way I could see
this solo being done.  Email me if you have seen a video of the
solo and can correct me.  I am not sure, but I think that this
could also be a tap solo.
This is my best guess.

Guitar 2 (During Solo):

Repeat throughout solo

Outro:

E power chord (Might just be the 1 and 5 and not the higher
octave 02xxxx, I can't quite tell).

rhythm:
s-e-s-s-s-s-e-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s    x3

s = sixteenth note
e = eighth note
