Tabbed by: rikky
Email: rikkycohn@gmail.com

Tuning: Standard

this song is around 136bpm, in the key of C#m/Emaj.

the other tab (chords v2) had the chords down pretty good, so i thought i'd throw out 
i play the riffs.

the times mark the first occurrence, but the song is very sample based so they appear at 
points throughout the song.

Riff 1 (0:04)

e|------------|
B|------------|
G|----9----9--|
D|--9-9--9-9--|
A|--9-7--9-7--|
E|--7----7----|

easy as that, just power chords. there's distortion and delay which makes it sound awesome.

Riff 2 (0:32)

e|------------------------|
B|------------------------|
G|------------------------|
D|------4----------6------|
A|----------7----------7--|
E|--7-7---7----7-7---7----|

E|--7-7---7----7-7----7---|

*|--U-D-U-D-U--U-D-U-D-U--|
-|---(picking pattern)----|

playing it the first way is easier for me (although it's a stretch on acoustic guitars), 
hammering the middle finger on the six and doing some fast alternate picking.

the second way is better if you're planning on capo'ing 7 or you barre it yourself.
if you do use a capo on 7, you can play version 2's chords like so (although they'll be 
high):

A Asus4 D E

in place of

E Esus4 A B

Riff 3 (1:16)

e|-----------------------14-12-14--|
B|--------------12-14-12-----------|
G|--13-13-14-14--------------------|
D|---------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------|

this is a very high synth that you'll miss if you blink.
it's too soft for me to tab with full confidence, but this works pretty well.
