There is another tab for this song. It is close but there are some mistakes with it. i very confident that this is the correct way to play it. i can play it right along with song just the way they do it. it is tuned to drop D and is played very fast, so watch out. Intro Part 1 E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-1111222233334444-1111222233334444-1111222233334444-1111222233334444------| A|-1111222233334444-1111222233334444-1111222233334444-1111222233334444------| D|-1111222233334444-1111222233334444-1111222233334444-1111222233334444------| Intro Part 2 this is played at a low volume for two measures then gets pretty loud. I recommend using volume pedal, if you don't have one... well nothing has to be perfect.
