***BOTH GUITARS FULLY TABBED***
Great song, haven't seen or heard the song live so this was tabbed purely by ear listening
to the CD track only but i saw the other uncomplete tabs, so i thought I'd give it a shot with a
complete one. All parts in distortion unless stated otherwise. I know the intro isn't distortion e.t.c... Enjoy...
