You should also use the capo on the second fret on this version, however i preferr the 1stversion, taken from the live in sydney 2003, DVD, just watch through it and judge for yourself, I hope this is right though. personally, I preferr to play the whole thing through like this.
Capo 5th fret.
verses:
Am, F, C, C, Csus.
Chorus':
F, C, C, Csus.
Distortion riffs.
Am, F, C, C, Csus
(with bends on the D string only when in C)
Csus is this...
e-0
B-1
G-0
D-0 (normally 2- in C, just take your finger off this string)
A-3
E-3
