Someone requested this a few months ago. Then I didn't have it on tape so I couldn't help him but I just bought a 'best of' cd so I decided to tab it. I don't remember the guy's email address so I can't send it to him, but I hope he checks my page out and finds it. MAIN RIFF: D E E|------0-------(0)(0)--------------| B|------3--3--2--0--0-----2p0-------| p = pull off G|---------------1--1---------1-----| D|---0--------------------------2---| A|----------------------------------| E|----------------------0-----------| | You really should pick these two notes with an upstroke. I don't wanna bother dividing this song into verses and choruses, it's pretty much the main riff throughout the song. So it's just the lyrics and where you see chords above them, stop playing the riff and play the chords instead. Easy as pie.
