I'm just taking the tab from the last person who made a tab for this song and putting it 
in the right tuning with all the corrections. So credit for this tab goes to that 
guy.... whoever he is.


Open E tuning EBEG#BE




e |-----------------------------------------------------------------|

E |-----------------------------------------------------------------|  x 3
B |----------------2-h-3-p-2----------------------------------------|
E |--0--4--6--4---------------7-h-6-p-7--4--------------------------|

         This song is played with overlapping combo of guitar and bass,
         so have someone play bass over the guitar [ remember
         that basses make the same sounds on different
         strings]. so if you're not happy with the intro just remember
         that there is a bass overlapping to cause a " fullness " to the notes.
         But then again, it was recorded in a freaking studio...

                               * verse 1 *

           Play : Intro x3
                     Verse1 x3
                     Intro x3
                    and then...

 E |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 G#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B |--2--4--5--4--2--0-0-----------------------------------------------|
 E |-------------------------4--0---7--9/0--14/7-----------------------|

         another guitar is playing harmonics over the bass
         over the 0---7--0--7 parts.
  Gently lay your index finger over the 7 and 12th fret...

 E |-----7-------12------7--------12-----------------------------------|
 B |-----7-------12------7--------12-----------------------------------|
 G#|-----7-------12------7--------12-----------------------------------|
 E |-----7-------12------7--------12-----------------------------------|
 B |-----7--------12-----7---------12----------------------------------|
 E |-----7--------12-----7---------12----------------------------------|

   Then when the drums kick in start palming these notes:

 E |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 G#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E |-PM--0--0-0-x/0-0--0-0-0-x/0-0--7--7-7-x/7-7--7-7-7-x/7-7----------|


So, turn off the lights cause it's night on the sun y'all
Hopelessly hopeless I hope so, for you...
Freeze your blood and then stab into in two
Stab your blood into me and blend
I eat my own blood and I get filled up, I get filled up and then

                       * guitar solo *

 Well it's one thing to know about this town, it's five hundred miles underground
 That's all right, that's all right
 Well there's one thing to know about this globe, it's bound up and willing to explode
 That's all right, that's all right
 There's one thing to know about this earth, we're put here just to make more dirt
 That's all right, that's all right
