Hey i'd just like to point out that the majority of this was originally tabbed by 
(he tabbed Version 1).  Pick whichever one u want, i just like power chords better than drop d 
i figured others probably would too.

This song has distorion the entire time unless otherwise noted.

|Key:           |
|...= soft      |
|***= palm mute |


Intro
                                                     Instead of 10/10/8...

D|-6666xx8888xx10101010xx66666666xx5555xx88-4--6--|  |--3----| but is a little

(the x's r fairly soft)
