The verse riff is:

E|-------------------------------------
B|-------------------------------------
G|-------------------------------------
D|-------------------------------------
A|----1--1p0----0--3--3--1--6----------
E|-3---------3-------------------------

(make sure you slide between the last two notes, meaning slide between
 fret 1 and 6).


The synthesizer riff (fit for guitar) for the verse is:

E|-3----1-------------1--||-6------------------1--||
B|-3---------4--3--4-----||-8----6----4--3--4-----||
G|-----------------------||-----------------------||
D|-----------------------||-----------------------||
A|-----------------------||-----------------------||
E|-----------------------||-----------------------||

(the double vertical lines in between means to repeat the riff)


For the ~Fight! Fight! Fight!~ part, the guitar plays a D5 chord (with
three staccato strums -hence the fight! fight! fight! part- it plays
D5 for about a second after that, then plays the C5 for another second,
then it plays C5 staccato three times.  In between is the synth line.
If you work on it, you will know what I mean.


Synth lines inbetween -Fight! Fight! Fight!-

  D5       C5                        C5        D5

E|--------------                  E|----------------
B|-3h4-3---1----                  B|-1h3-4--4--3-3--
G|--------------  ..............  G|----------------
D|--------------                  D|----------------
A|--------------                  A|----------------
E|--------------                  E|----------------


That is basically it.  The song ends on D5 and that is about it.

Sometimes there's nothing to feel
Sometimes there's nothing to hold
Sometimes there's no time to run away
Sometimes you just feel so old
The times it hurts when you cry
The times it hurts just to breathe
And then it seems like there's no-one left
And all you want is to sleep

Fight fight fight
Just push it away
Fight fight fight
Just push it until it breaks
Fight fight fight
Don't cry at the pain
Fight fight fight
Or watch yourself burn again
Fight fight fight
Don't howl like a dog
Fight fight
Just fill up the sky
Fight fight fight
Fight til you drop
Fight fight fight
And never never
Never stop

Fight fight fight
Fight fight fight

So when the hurting starts
And when the nightmares begin
Remember you can fill up the sky
You don't have to give in
You don't have to give in

Never give in
Never give in
Never give in
