This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

A lot of people think that this album sucks. And I agree on some of the songs, but I

still think that a lot of the songs really sounds great. And this is one of them. I

decided to tab it myself, because I thought some of the other tabs I found didn't

really sound like the real thing. So here's what I found out.

Tuning low to high, drop D 1 1/2 steps down: B F# B E G# C#

First the drums kick in.
