UPDATES
========
Sept. 13, 2012 - The solo was missing some notes on the lower half of some power chords. 
This has been fixed, and a very slightly different pattern that's easy to notice by ear 
has been added to the solo.

=====================================================================

Seventh track off of Billy Talent's "Dead Silence" record.

Woo, this'll be my first tab, but I was determined for it to be right.
So hope you guys enjoy this tab, and let me know if you find errors or corrections!


Before we get to the real business, I am aware that this song has two guitars.
(If this is news to you, listen to the verse bridge thing at around 1:30 in and
there are two guitars playing, although it isn't the only part it is.) For the
sake of this being a Billy Talent song, I've only tabbed one combined part,
because there is only one (amazing) guitarist. Enjoy!
