Notes - The song is supposed to use barre chords, but when using a hefty bit of
distortion it can sound a little fuzzy (couldn't think of any other word??). So it
sounds just as good with powerchords, or just make the barre chord shape and strum
the first 3 strings (which is pointless, but what I end up doing). Oh, and this is
played with two guitars. Although I've only covered one. I think the second guitar
pretty much does what the 1st one does, except it covers the solo and there's a
slight variation at the end.

I'm not too sure about the next bit, but the drums and bass play a big part in the rhythm of this part.

This repeats 4 times, then the solo comes in over the top of it. Play this a total of 12
(8 while the solo is going on).

The last bit is played by another guitar, over the top of the main bit (I think).
