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

Tabbed by Milenko28651@cs.com

before playing this, note that you don't use a pick but an alen wrench.

all this stuff is screwed up if you don't know wut is means, so:

\ = slide the alen wrench on your strings left while holding the fret it says

to

/ = slide the alen wrench on your strings right while holding the fret it

says to

^ = bend the string up

if your looking to play it exactly like tom morello this is how he does it

main riff

E--------------------------------------------------------------------------l

B--------------------------------------------------------------------------l

G--------------------------------------------------------------------------l

D--------------------------------------------------------------------------l

A------------------2=/--\--/--\--/----0=\-------------------------------l

E--------------------------------------------------------------------------l

keep repeating this until zak sings '' and this is for the people of

the sun!''

then play:

chorus riff

E------------------------------------------l

B------------------------------------------l

G------------------------------------------l

D------------------------------------------l

A -----------------------------------------l

E --0=/--\--/--\--/--\--/--\--/--\--/---5l < when playing the fifth fret do a

hard up stroke

play the main riff again.

then listen to the song to find out when it the second verse you play

this:

E-------------------------------------------------------0-l
B-------------------------------------------------------0-l
G-------------------------------------------------------0-l

D----------------------------------------------------------l

A----------------------------------------------------------l

E ----3^(whole step, then back down)-------l
