  			Tabbed by: Phil Malko 
 
Ok, well, I've done a few tabs before 
but, nothing like this from scratch. 
If I have anything wrong in it, just 
lemme know. Thanks. I did work on 
this for quite some time, so, enjoy. 
 
Tuning: Down 1/2 step 
 
Intro/verse guitar: 
 
e-0-----0-----0- 
B-1-----1-----1- 
G-2-----0-----2- 
D-3-----2-----3- 
A-3-----3-----3- 
E--------------- 
Strum each one a few times. Listen to 
the song for timing. 
 
Intro/verse 2nd guitar: 
 
e--------------------------------------- 
B--------------------------------------- 
G-3/5---3/5---5/7--7/9---12-10-9-10-9--- 
D-x-x---x-x---x-x--x-x----------------10 
A-1/3---1/3---3/5--5/7------------------ 
E--------------------------------------- 
Strum each ending note a few times before 
moving on to the next. 
 
Chorus: 
 
e--------------- 
B--------------- 
G--------5--7--- 
D-10--3--5--7--- 
A-8---3--3--5--- 
E-6---1--------- 
Strum each one a few times as well. 
 
Outro to Chorus guitar: 
 
e------------ 
B-6--5--3--1- 
G-5--4--2--0- 
D------------ 
A------------ 
E------------ 
Again with the strumming. 
 
Outro To Chorus 2nd guitar: 
 
e----------------- 
B----------------- 
G--10---9---7--5-- 
D--------------5-- 
A-8---7---5----3-- 
E----------------- 
 
Now, repeat the verse and chorus 
like a good lad/lass. 
 
Then it goes like this ... or so I 
think. 
 
e----------------------- 
B----------------------- 
G-5--------------------- 
D-5--------------3------ 
A-3--------------3------ 
E----------------1------ 
 "Do you remember layin' on ..." 
 
The other guitar goes... 
 
e-------------12--13- 
B-13---13--15-------- 
G-------------------- 
D-------------------- 
A-------------------- 
E-------------------- 
 
He does different variations of that 
little riff, so, just listen to it, 
and change up the notes. I can't quite 
get them, but a good player like 
yourself should be able to. 
 
When Chris is sayin' "ooooOOOoooo" 
just do the same riff as before. For 
you lazy people, I'll tab it out yet 
again... 
 
e--------------- 
B--------------- 
G-5------------- 
D-5--------3---- 
A-3--------3---- 
E----------1---- 
 
While playing that, the 2nd guitar goes 
as follows ..... 
 
e-15--15/------20---------------------- 
B-----------18----18-17-18-17-15-17-15- 
G-------------------------------------- 
D-------------------------------------- 
A-------------------------------------- 
E-------------------------------------- 
 
e----------------------13------------------- 
B-13-15-13----13-15-13----13-15-13--13-15-13 
G------------------------------------------- 
D------------------------------------------- 
A------------------------------------------- 
E------------------------------------------- 
 
Reapeat that a few times. 
Then, play the chorus riff until the end. 
Here's the ending riff .... 
 
e--------------------------x- 
B--------------------------x- 
G-10----9-----7-----5------5-- 
D-------------------5------5- 
A----8-----7-----5--3------3- 
E--------------------------3- 
                    ^      ^   
Key: ^ = Downstroke 
 
For the most part that should do it. 
I haven't seen any tabs for this song, 
so I took it upon myself to start the trend. 
See if you can one-up me, and make this better. 
Thanks, and enjoy.
