Tuning: Drop D low to high (D,A,D,G,B,e)

This song can be played In 1 & ? steps down Drop D (B,F#,B,E,G#,C#) tuning with a capo
the 3rd fret if you want to play it this way simply play the song the exact same with
making this numbers in relation to the capo. Note: BLB usually does this for the 
guitar when playing live. Also the Acoustic guitar could be tuned to standard tuning except
the bottom string wouldn't be truly correct during the bridge when they strike open 
but that's so minor I really doubt anyone would ever notice.

Intro Riff Gtr. 2 (Clean w/ Echo) Turn up volume knob while playing this

Then Break that is just Bass and effects

Then 2nd Verse equals Verse riff 8x

Then play through Chorus again
