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

Thanks to Denis Bourdon for aid in this tablature

*TUNING*-STANDARD (except guitar 2 on one part, dropped-d)

*KEY*

x-play muted strings

*NOTES*

This tab should be pretty accurate...Most of the errors are probably in

the strumming pattern and/or the number of times each chord is strum.

On these particular palm mutes, to get the same high pitched sound Daniel

has you have to slide to the top of the fret board (towards the end with

the pick-ups) and palm mute, then slide back down.
