NOTE: This is a mapped version of this tab. In the first section, you will
find tabs for all the parts to the song. In the second section, you will
see the order in which to play them. This is to save paper. Thank you.
 
The song is played at about 160 bpm and in common time. Both guitars have
overdriven effects.
 
Gtr I (E A D G B E) - 'lead'
Gtr II (E A D G B E) - 'rhythm'
