The riffs may look confusing, and not long but all the notes fit if you time it just right. Many people have looked at the chorus riff and thought it was to short, but then played it and saw that it matched almost perfectly. This tab took me a while and is 99.99% correct, with a few errors here and there. It sound almost perfect, and any little bits of advice are welcome. The song itself is really easy to play and is mainly open notes on the E and B strings. The rhythm verse riff is constantly changing and I put down the basis for all of them, you can alter it any way you like. The solo is especially easy and when you add pinch harmonics it sounds amazing. That's about it besides play through it slow, and get a hang of it before you go crazy with it. Peace guys and good luck. As always here's the lyrics. Lyrics: Verse 1 - Follow me, don't follow me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush Collar me, don't collar me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush We are agents of the free I've had my fun and now it's time to Serve your conscience overseas (over me, not over me) Coming in fast, over me Chorus 1 - (Instrumental with "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" in the background) Verse 2 - Follow me, don't follow me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush Collar me, don't collar me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush We are agents of the free I've had my fun and now it's time to Serve your conscience overseas (over me, not over me) Coming in fast, over me Chorus 2 - High on the roof, Thin the blood, Another one on the waves tonight, Comin' in to you're home Verse 3 - Follow me, don't follow me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush Collar me, don't collar me I've got my spine, I've got my orange crush We are agents of the free I've had my fun and now it's time to Serve your conscience overseas (over me, not over me) Coming in fast, over me Chorus 3 - High on the roof, Thin the blood, Another one on the waves tonight, Comin' in to you're home Chorus 4 - High on the roof, Thin the blood, Another one on the waves tonight, Comin' in to you're home
