**TUNING**
low to high

D-B-D-F#-B-D

tune the high e down one whole step to D, along with the low E. tune the A string up one 
whole step to B. tune the G string down half step to F#. i can't take credit for the 
i'm pretty confident this is almost right. i know it isn't 100% but it's close to the 
song. the part labeled B is where i'm pretty sure i have it wrong. so if anyone gets it 
correct it please.s
the picking is tricky at first, but use the general rule of your thumb for the E, A and 
D, your index for the G and B and middle for the high E.



PART A

E------------------0--------------------|
B---------0-----------------0-----------|
G--1--------1------------1--------------|

PART C  repeats 8 the first time and 4 times in the verses

E----------------|
B-----------0----|
G--------0-------|
D-----2-------2--|
A--3-------------|
E----------------|


the order is roughly:

intro
PART A
PART B
PART C

verse
PART A
PART B
PART B
PART C

then back into the intro. just repeats after that basically. there's a break down part 
that's sort of like this:

E------------------9------7------|
B---------0----------------------|
G--8--------8--------------------|
D------0-------0------0------0---|
A--8---------------8------8------|
E--------------------------------|

E---------2--------2h4----2--------|
B----------------------------------|
G--3--------3----------------0-----|
D------0-------0--------4-------4--|
A--3---------------0---------------|
E----------------------------------|

as far as the solo i sort of just do my own thing.
it's best to listen to the song or watch live videos or something (that's how i figured it out)

i apologize if this tab is confusing/terrible but i usually don't tab songs out
