TUNING: B (every string down 2.5 steps)




RIFF 1 (intro) play four times

/// Well, the intro riff starts off with violin on the album,
maybe play the intro riff 4 times instead.
There are 4 guitars on this part.
Guitar 1,2 and 3 play all four times,
Guitar 4 just plays 3:rd and 4:th time.
If you're planning to do this song live, let the bass play what guitar 3 is 
doing.
Then play guitar 1+2 the first two times, then change to guitar 1+4 the last 
two ///
