Tuning: Tune down your axe 1.5 steps, then drop the 
lowest string an additional step.
 (B,F#,B,E,G#,C#)

(Note that the timing is not correct in this 
transcription)


-Intro:

 C#|-------------------------------------------------|
 G#|------11-------10-------11-------10--------------|
 E |---14-------12-------14-------12-----------------|
 B |---------------------------------------13--------|
 F#|-------------------------------------------------|
 B |-------------------------------------------------|
 (The notes are only picked once, an effect is used
 to make them echo)                                              


-Verse: Same as intro. Play 4 times, but include the 
 last note the 2nd and 4th times only. 


-Chorus:

 C#|------------------------------------------|
 G#|------------------------------------------| 
 E |-----------5/7--5/8-----------------------|
 B |----0-------------------------------------|
 F#|----0------3/5--3/6--------4---3---1------|
 B |----0------------------0---4---3---1------|

 Play 3 times,
 then this:

 C#|--------------------------|----------------------------|
 G#|--------------------------|----------------------------|
 E |-------5/7--5/8-----------|----------5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5--|
 B |---0----------------------|--1--1-1--5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5--|

 B |---0-------------0-4-3-0--|--1--1-1--------------------|
                               (strum these chords) 
                               
-Interlude:

 I'm not completely sure of what is going on here, 
 but this sounds fairly right to me:

 C#|---- (tremolo picking) -----------------|
 G#|----------------------------------------| 
 E |----7**-----5**-----13**-----8**--------| play
 B |----------------------------------------| 2 times
 F#|----5**-----3**-----11**-----6**--------|
 B |----------------------------------------|
  Starting with "And I see the walls around me..."   

 3rd time:

 C#|---- (tremolo picking) ----------------|
 G#|---------------------------------------|
 E |----7**-----5**-----10**-----12**------|
 B |---------------------------------------|
 F#|----5**-----3**------8**-----10**------|
 B |---------------------------------------|
  Starting with "I see those walls surround you..."

 Shouting part of interlude:

 C#|------------------------|------------------------|
 G#|------------------------|------------------------|
 E |------------------------|------------------------|
 B |--0--0--1--0---4-4-4-4--|--0--0--1--0---4-4-4-4--|
 F#|--0--0--1--0---4-4-4-4--|--0--0--1--0---4-4-4-4--|
 B |--0--0--1--0---4-4-4-4--|--0--0--1--0---4-4-4-4--|
      "Cold.......             cold........."
 
 Play 2 times...


-The last set of choruses is moved up two frets:

 C#|-----------------------------------------------------|
 G#|-----------------------------------------------------|
 E |----------7/9--7/10----------------------------------|
 B |----2------------------------------- and so on... ---|
 F#|----2-----5/7--5/8-------6--5--3---------------------|
