For all the heavy one-note chugging parts I just put the note and I'll leave 
you to figure out the rhythm.... everything else is prettty straight forward 

sorry for all the cramming but i wanted to save space 

if the sweeping part confuses you-start w/ your pinky and finish w/ your 
index finger----the reason I put 'improv on A' at the end is because Petrucci 
himself does it differently every time he plays it.... 

well... have fun! comments?questions?corrections? send them to:
