Tuning:Standard
Hi, here's my first tab. It's just a base, not very accurate, but I tab what I ear
because it's impossible to find a tab for this song.
I think the real tuning is 1/2 town down so you can play the song on the A string
but I don't want to change the tuning of my guitar.
Listen to the song for the rhythm, it's quite difficult :)

A|---------------11-8---|--8------10-8----------------------|

Repeat the first half, then play

D|---8-8-8-8-8---------------------------------------------|

Again the first part
First break, the rhythm changes, slower than the beginning of the song :
e|--4--4--4--x--|6-6-6--6-6-6-6|--4--4--4--x--|6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4|
B|--4--4--4--x--|6-6-6--6-6-6-6|--4--4--4--x--|8-8-8-8-6-6-6-6|

A|--6--6--6--x--|8-8-8--8-8-8-8|--6--6--6--x--|6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4|
E|--4--4--4--x--|6-6-6--6-6-6-6|--4--4--4--x--|---------------|
Second break
Play that (not exact, I can't figure the exact chord, I think it's not a guitar playin that)
e|----6----6----6----6---4-4-4--4-4-4-------------------------------|

E|--6-6--6-6--6-6--6-6---4-4-4--4-4-4-------------------------------|
Then with distortion, repeat that little riff
e|------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------99999--------------------------------|
D|-----------------99999--------------------------------|
A|-----------------77777--------------------------------|
