Any corrections, praises, death-threats or other rants are welcome.

(note:I've integrated much of the song-structure into the actual tab)

Tune your guitar down 1/2 step.

INTRO ----> composed of Riffs A and B respectively

RIFF A (X2) -clean tone- let ring

RIFF 1 (X2) -vocals start-

(The clean electric guitar strums the chords and plays the short arpeggios

right after the piano)

RIFF 2.B (X1) (this is actually the above riff doubled by a second guitar

from

a higher octave, but I decided to arrange this as 2 guitars

for

one - sounds good enough)

-PM-PM-PM-PM- -PM-PM-PM-

- repeat Riff 1 (X2), but without the arpeggios - i.e. just strum the

chords

- repeat Riffs 2.a,b,c (note: some slight variations appear here and there.

I'm too tired to tab them. Just listen to the song,

they're nothing noteworthy anyway)

CHORUS (X4) (guitar 2 does some weird shit, but it's virtually impossible

to make any sense of it)

- repeat Riffs 2.a,b,c

- repeat Riff 1 (X2) without the arpeggios

- repeat Riffs 2.a,b,c

- repeat chorus (X4)

- solo ---->I'll probably tab it later, but if someone has it, pls send it!

- repeat chorus

On the 3rd repeat of the chorus, switch to this: (X4)

On 3rd repeat of the above Riff, guitar 2 plays the following lead on top

of

guitar 1:

|---------------------------------------------------------------------------

|--8~/12h10-----------------------------------------------------------------

|------------12--11~--------------------------------------------------------

The song ends with the A5 power-chord:

|-----|
|-----|
|-----|
|--7--|
|--7--|

|--5--| ...and fade-out...

OUTRO -piano-

(you can improvise some arpeggios with your guitar similar to Riff 1.)

Well, that's it. This is one hell of a song from one hell of a band!
