Intro:
G----7h9----------------------------------
D-----------9p7------------------------
A-7------------10----6--7-----------
E------------------------------------------------

Main Riff:
G--------------------------7-8-9--
D----7-7---------------7-9--------
A-7-7-7---4--5--6---7-7-7---------
E---------------------------------

Repeat the main riff 4 times and end with and A7

Pre Main Riff Ditty

G---9----------9----------9-------
D------9----------9---------------
A----------7----------7-----------
E----------------------------------

Then play main riff 2 more times and end with the same A 7.
The bass stops for the drum solo then play:

G----7----------

......"POW!"

Then go back to the main riff play it two
times at the normal speed then play it once
while you're slowing down then play:

G-----------------------------------
D-----7-7---------------------------
A--7-7-7---4-4-5-6-7-7--------5-----
E------------------------5--7-------

G---------------------------------7h9-7h9-7--------
D----7-7--------------------7-7--9-----------------
A-7-7-7---4-4-5-6-7------7-7-7-7-------------------
E--------------------------------------------------

then you just play the main riff a few more times.
MCA throws this one in a couple times too, then switches
back right to the main one at the end, but it's so quiet you
can barely hear the switch. have fun with it, do a little
improv.

G--------------------------------7--
D-------------------------7h9-------
A---7---7---7---7---7---------------
E-----------------------------------

I think this is fairly correct. I've never seen a tab for
this anywhere before, so it's better than nothing. Please
send corrections to sauron420@home.com. Enjoy!
