Drowning Pool - Tear Away
Transcirbed by - Daniel Thomason (Deftones136212@aol.com)
Tuning - Drop D, Down 1 Whole Step (C, G, C, F, A, D, low to high)
Note - Ok, the rhythm on some parts of this song is very strange to figure out 
so I suggest you listen to the CD to get it down.  The solo is almost complete
and should be enough to get you through the song(it's played in the Phrygian mode,
if that helps any).  I couldn't getthe riff that comes in right after the lead 
singer says "Break!", but I'll bet it's something like a the intro to "Bodies" run 
through a wah pedal.  I left out the outro too, but that's just some apregiated through
a flanger pedal(or at least sounds like it).  Other than that, most of the song is 
here.  E-mail me if you know the rest, as I'd like to finish learning it.  

Key:
x - Muted note
P.M. - Palm Mute
/ - Slide up
br - Bend up 1 whole step, then release
bgr - Bend and gradually release while picking note
f

Tremolo pick all notes except bent notes.  This solo is incomplete,
but just improvise the end by bending notes that are tremolo picked
in the beginning.
