*Rhythm only plays these notes.
**This isn’t necessary, it just makes the note sound cooler.                               

This song has a lot of palm-muting, some of the notes in this tab you don’t really need to play unless you want to get it fully correct, it’ll still sounds the same to the naked ear. If you can’t hear the palm muting, just sit there and really, really listen and it’ll be found.
