*notes*
Haven't posted any tabs in a few weeks, but I had to start typing this up after my
cat took some bites out of my written draft. This song is pretty easy to play, but
there are a couple things that can be painful to your carpal tunnel if you play it
a certain way. A couple suggestions are in the tab.

*Effects*
You only need  distortion, but I like to use a delay for better sound. If you decide
to use the delay, I reccomend these settings:

Delay Time=0    Mode=1 (19-113ms)    Delay Level=10   Repeat=0

But again, the delay is very optional.
And remember, this is an LHM song so that means a LOT of distortion

^^               ^^
*I reccomend barring you middle finger over only the low 3 strings and
have your index finger on the 12th fret. If you do it with the wrong
fingers you can see your wrist bulge and you'll get a shot of pain*

*Play Riff B*
Play Fill 1*

Drum riff ends the song and guitars let out feedback

Song Time - 4:54

I finally got their style down now. This sounds very correct to me. Hope you like it.
