This is a really high energy song and it’s a lot of fun to play. Despite what the other tabbers think, it’s
impossible to play it with a 4-string because there’s a lot of low A’s in it. This song is tabbed out in
drop A tuning. Enjoy!
Here’s the intro riff...it gets used many times in the song:
(X=quickly mute string, ///=slide)
G----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A---66X--6-44-6---66X--6-44-6---66X--6-44-6---66X--6-44-6----------------------------------------
Verse riff (2X)
G----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E------------2--4-----------2///7-------------2--4-----------2///9--------------------------------------------
A---66X--6--------66X--6-------------66X--6---------66X--6--------------------------------------------------
Chorus: (2X) (When playing octaves let both A strings ring together.)
G----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A---2------0---00----0-------2-------0---00-----0-----------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A-----2--0---0----00-----------2--0---0-----00--------------------------------------------------------------
Back to intro riff then verse riff then back to chorus and intro again. That is followed by this bridge:
(4X Accept the 4th time just let the 6 ring out instead of going back into it again.)
G----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A---2-2-2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4-4-4--66X-6-44-6-66X-6-446--------------------------------------------------
After that it goes through the intro riff and the chorus again then it does this for 4 measures:
G----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A---66--666--666--66--66--666--666--66--66--666--666--66--66--666--666--66-------------------
The song ends with the intro riff being played 2X.
