Sick of guitar? Just have some Tylernol and you'll be loving it again in no time!:D
To everyone who sees this, this is my first tab, but i can't take full credit, i did use
others tabs already made before this one a little bit, and i did watch some videos, but what
bothered me is that i couldnt find anything that had the higher guitar riffs, so i did all
of that plus some other parts by ear :D. Those parts may not be exactly right, but
when your playing with another person on guitar and a drummer, it sounds just fine.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER:
1. I only showed which chords are played, not how many times there played, so please
dont sit there playing each of them once and thinking the guy who tabbed this is an idiot (i did
however show the amount each chord is played during the bridge).
2. Anytime I tell you the timing, it is not the actual timing in the song, its just
to help you proportion the amount of time each chord/note is played.
Ok well thats it, if theres anything wrong witht he tab dont be afraid to tell me, and
theres anything i can do to make it more understandable, like adding in part of the
lyrics to help the timing (i dont really think that is all that necessary, just listen the song,
you can figure it out :D) then message me or leave a comment, and most
importantly, dont forget to rate :D!

Outro:

|------------------------------|--9999--12121212--12--9~~~-|
*****Instead of just tremolo picking 10, try tremolo picking 10, 5, 10.
But do it only playing the 5 once. To time it right play the 5 when the
other guitar is playing the -2- chord
-2-
-2-
Here is it in tab form if you don't understand
|-5--2----|
|-5--2----| So you tremolo pick the 10, and when it switches chords you
|-5--2----| continue tremolo picking, but you quickly pick the 5 once and
| then back to 10
|-10-5-10-|
Sorry about the parts that were wrong, the only improvement i made was the
little note with the guitar doing the tremolo picking above on third
chorus, and you can thank * joseluis92 * for commenting and giving me
corrections for the guitar playing the chords on the chorus, and the last
two chords on the outro
