A|-2----------2----------2----------------------------------------------------------|
E|-0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0--------------------------------------------------------|

For the verse, do the intro but do this instead of the hammering at the end of the intro

e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-2h-4/5---5-4-2--------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Chorus
This is more of the rythm part, not the lead. The lead is built of the intro. Play this
few times and listen for it, you'll hear it in the song.

e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-9-9---7-7-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-9-9---7-7---5-5---7-7---9-9---7---5---9-9-9-9-------------------------------| 2 times
A|-7-7---5-5---5-5---7-7---9-9---7---5---9-9-9-9-------------------------------|
E|----------------3-3---5-5---7-7---5---3---7-7-7-7----------------------------|

Toward the end they start humming, the repetive chord being played is the same chord
is played after the drum part at the begining. The lead guitar plays something like this,
to is built of the intro, if you wanna do your own thing.

Verse (figure out strumming on your own, it's not too hard but it goes something like:
U, hold, D, U, hold, D-D, U, hold, D, U ---for each chord)

Bridge (it comes after the verse I'm not sure what to call it)(progression: D,D,U then
to the next chord... hopefully that makes sense if not just play around with it you'll
it)

this is pretty much the song.....the progression is pretty obvious when you listen and
breakdown/bridge thing is the same as the intro...but I had to write this tab after
the absurdly wrong ones that were getting 4 and 5 stars on here...enjoy...it's right!
