Drop D tuning   these guys are awesome i saw them live with Papa Roach
Just in case: stripes385@aol.com

Ok Im going to say this because alot of people keep asking me.
The song is originally in Standard tuning, i even saw it in a 
tab book after posting this that it was in standard. But i enjoy 
playing in drop d and aaf played it in drop d in concert 
(in charlotte,nc) so thats how i wrote it. either way its still 
right, maybe just in a diff tuning.   P.S. I added the correct solo!!

I find the main riff easier like this. The timing is a pain but try and play along to the track. Thats what i did. :D

its easiest to play drop d because you can bar the fret and its more accurate. much easier.
