Tabbed and Revised By: MrFloyd (rbgoud@excite.com)

This is a revision of my original version, which didn't have the solo and had
lyrics written incorrectly.

It's not too hard. Pretty easy, really, but a lot of fun to play.

All Power Chords, I think

Use Distortion

Intro:

A C A E G x2

On the last run. Just hit the first note (e 16) then slide down
making sure every note sounds. That's the only way I could see
this solo being done. Email me if you have seen a video of the
solo and can correct me. I am not sure, but I think that this
could also be a tap solo.
This is my best guess.

Guitar 2 (During Solo):

Repeat throughout solo

Outro:

E power chord (Might just be the 1 and 5 and not the higher
octave 02xxxx, I can't quite tell).

rhythm:
s-e-s-s-s-s-e-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s x3

s = sixteenth note
e = eighth note
