Any corrections, praises, death-threats or other rants are welcome.
(note:I've integrated much of the song-structure into the actual tab)
Tune your guitar down 1/2 step.
INTRO ----> composed of Riffs A and B respectively
RIFF A (X2) -clean tone- let ring
|---------0-----0----------0-----0-----------0------0-----------------------

--||---9---9-----9------9---9-----9-------8---8------8-------------------------
--||-7----------------7----------------------------9---------------------------

RIFF B (X4) -still clean- still ringin'
|---------0-----0-5-------0---------------0-----0---------------------------

--||-7---------7-------7-------7-------7-------7-------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
RIFF 1 (X2) -vocals start-
(The clean electric guitar strums the chords and plays the short arpeggios
right after the piano)
|-0---5-----------0----------------0---1--------------0-------0-------------
--||-0-----5---------0-------0--------1-------0---0------0---------0-----------

--||-(0)----------------0---0----7~h8-6~-----------------------------------------|
-PM-PM-PM-PM- -PM-PM-PM-
RIFF 2.B (X1) (this is actually the above riff doubled by a second guitar
from
a higher octave, but I decided to arrange this as 2 guitars
for
one - sounds good enough)
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||-9-9-9-9-9-9----9----7------------7~---------------------------------------
--||-7-7-7-7-7-7----10---9-----------------------------------------------------

--||-7-7-7-7-7-7----10---9-----------5-----------------------------------------
--||-------------------0---0----7~h8---------------------------------------------|
-PM-PM-PM-PM- -PM-PM-PM-
- repeat Riff 1 (X2), but without the arpeggios - i.e. just strum the
chords
- repeat Riffs 2.a,b,c (note: some slight variations appear here and there.
I'm too tired to tab them. Just listen to the song,
they're nothing noteworthy anyway)
CHORUS (X4) (guitar 2 does some weird shit, but it's virtually impossible
to make any sense of it)
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

- repeat Riffs 2.a,b,c
- repeat Riff 1 (X2) without the arpeggios
- repeat Riffs 2.a,b,c
- repeat chorus (X4)
- solo ---->I'll probably tab it later, but if someone has it, pls send it!
- repeat chorus
On the 3rd repeat of the chorus, switch to this: (X4)

On 3rd repeat of the above Riff, guitar 2 plays the following lead on top
of
guitar 1:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||--8~/12h10-----------------------------------------------------------------
--||------------12--11~--------------------------------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
On 4th repeat, guitar 2 plays the following:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||--10/12--10----------------------------------------------------------------
--||-------------12--11~-------------------------------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--||-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
The song ends with the A5 power-chord:
|-----||-----||-----||--7--||--7--||--5--| ...and fade-out...
OUTRO -piano-
(you can improvise some arpeggios with your guitar similar to Riff 1.)
Well, that's it. This is one hell of a song from one hell of a band!
