Revision 1.5

March 6th, 2001

Normal Tunning

(e,A,D,G,B,E)

Intro:

The first time played VERY soft at the very beginning and then again much

louder right after.

          G:-6--------------------6/8----------------------

D:-6-(15x in 16th notes)6/8-(hold for 4 counts)--x2

          A:-4--------------------4/6----------------------

e:-----------------------------------------------

*Alternate as suggested by Horror Biz*

G:-6--------------------(8)<=====================(not sure if this note is hit)

D:-6-(16x in 16th notes)-8-(hold for 4 counts)---x2

          A:-4---------------------6-----------------------
          e:-----------------------6-----------------------

Verse Riff 1st and 2nd:

          G:-88-8-8-88-88-------------------
          D:-88-8-8-88-88-------------------x2
          A:-66-6-6-66-66-------------------

e:--------------------------------

Chorus Riff 1st and 2nd:

          G:-88-8-8-8\55-5-5-5--------------------
          D:-88-8-8-8\55-5-5-5-88-8-8-8\66-6-6-6--
          A:-66-6-6-6\33-3-3-3-88-8-8-8\66-6-6-6--x2
          e:-------------------66-6-6-6\44-4-4-4--

*Alternate Suggestion*

Horror Biz told me that during the chorus, the guitar is backing the bass line

with muted power chords. The chords are same as above, just muted. But this is

yet to be determined since there is no real high quality copy of the performace.

But either way it does sound good.

For Refrence the Bass Line for the chorus is as followed

D:----------------------------------------

          	A:-66-6-6-6\33-3-3-3----------------------
          	E:------------------66-6-6-6\44-4-4-4-----

and at the end of playing the above riff twice you play this

while he sings "AAAAWAAAAY,AAAAWAAAY,YEAHHHH!!!"

G:----------------------------------

          D:-8666--8666--66666666-------------
          A:-8666--8666--66666666-------------
          e:-6444--6444--44444444-------------

Bridge To Verse:

Same As Intro except played loud BOTH times

          G:-6--------------------6/8----------------------

D:-6-(15x in 16th notes)6/8-(hold for 4 counts)--

          A:-4--------------------4/6----------------------

e:-----------------------------------------------

*Alternate*

G:-6--------------------(8)<=====================(not sure if this note is hit)

D:-6-(16x in 16th notes)-8-(hold for 4 counts)---x2

          	A:-4---------------------6-----------------------
          	e:-----------------------6-----------------------

Third Verse: (KEY CHANGE)

The key is changed up a half step

          G:9-9-9-9-------------------------------

This is the second revision of the song with some help from Horror Bizz. The majority of this

was tabbed by me, dylan (aka DamiaN),created in Word Pad using a MP3 from the performace as

reference. As stated before...

Since the audio is from a Television program, the audio was no where near as good as it could

have been say if it were from a CD. So If anyone was able to hear things or figure things out

that are not included or are wrong, please email me with corrections at
