Hold the last note and slide down to open E.





All those opens are a bitch to hit, just don’t stress if you miss a few!


Hope this helps, so u would use distortion pedal, at that, but it aint necessary.

actually, both of them riffs are right.


if you knew your scales you would notice they are the same. just cus chris plays it like that doesnt mean that one is wrong, its all about which one people find easier to play. Personally i play the riff on the A string.

hard to play, but thats it. 100% sure
EdityourcrapEdityourcrapUnknown Date
i looked at some other tabs first. they seemed wrong because usually people don't slide all over one string (and you also said they didn't write it that way), when the same note is right by where your hand already is.





the "wrong" way its written is more conveniently than your supposed


"correct" way. and I learned the song more easily.


i don't care what you saw on TV, that one string thing seems so inherently wrong if you think about scales and being illogical and what not. everything else is played far above those frets.


just omit the "correct" version, because the only way it could possibly seem hard to play it on more than one string is muting the open note, so you could





just play the 5th fret on the E string


if you can't mute the note after you're done playing it.

many bands do that kind of technique, if you can't do that yet, you might want to practice at it, it'll improve your skills drastically.

ur right


u can play the first part of the verse on one string
