Tuning: Standard

much in the way of technical skill, but still an awesome song.

All guitar except for where noted is played with a clean tone and relatively quietly.
Since I took the liberty of pointing out just about all of the details, this tab is for
one guitar, although second guitar could play rhythem, which is mostly the chords in the
verse, although you could probably pick it up by ear. 
 
Intro (0:00-0:10, notes ring at 0:04 and 0:09) This part is unnecessary, skip it or have

a second guitar play it, as the pre-verse starts before the second note is played.

Pre-verse (0:07-0:20) The third time just play the regular A power chord.

Chorus (0:36-0:50)
This is the rhythm for the chorus, no there is no singing so it is not technically the
chorus but still useful for if you have a second guitar later on.

Chorus (1:05-1:19) With distortion (every chorus and riff similar to this from here on
out has distortion. If you can't figure it out, just listen to the song). For the 7b8,
keep the string bent instead of bending it each time (this also applies to the rest of
the song).

A few details were left out because I'm lazy, as was a lot of the rhythm since this is
only for one guitar. A lot of the stuff I left out is fairly easy to pick up by ear.
Also, you can obviously improv on the chorus, but I tried to tab it as closely as
possible.

Enjoy!
