((I altered it a bit))

tuning: drop D

/ = slide up
~ = vibrato
()= bend up/bend down - you can figure out which

Intro (clean, that is, no distortion - amazing isn't it?)
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
o--/14~--14--14-14-14-14--14-14-13-13--13--13--|

Main Riff (plenty of distortion)

|--------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|
o--------------------------------------|
o----(6)5--3--0---5-0---3--0--x-x-x-x--|
|----------3--0---5-0---3--0--x-x-x-x--|

Fill (this is played in the middle of the third time
      the main riff is played)

|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|--3(4)-(4)-(4)-(4)-(4)-(4)-(3)--|
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|

when you play this you're just bending the fourth note
up to the fifth and then back down again - sorry for
my poor notation, I'm not sure how to properly tab that


then the last riff

|-----------------------------|
|-----------------------------|
|----------------5~-----5h7~--|
|-----------------------------|

   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
whether or not this part is palm muted
I can't figure out.  sounds good both
ways, though.
