Tuning: Drop C (C,G,C,F,A,D)
Notes: Very easy one if you take out the leads (which are pretty easy in
their own right). I can't hear the intro fade in solo so that's practically
impossible to tab accurately so you can improvise it. The other lead you can
also improvise if you want. It's a very "loose" solo, but I tried to tab it as
accurately as I could.
Riff 1 (fade in) "When it all goes down! We will rise!"

Play Riff 1 x6 (last time, don't play the open chords at the end)
Riff 2 "One vision, death has risen..."

Note: Let the 4th string ring out the entire time. The very first time he
plays this riff, it doesn't sound like he plays the 2nd fret note on the 4th
string, possibly a studio error or maybe it was intended, I don't know but
every other time it's played like I tabbed. Also the 2p0 pull-off on the 4th
string is delayed slightly so it creates a lazy pull-off sound.
Play Riff 2 x2
Riff 3 "Millennium rains..."

Note: This solo is probably not 100%, but it's the basic idea. Like I've
said, it's probably easier just to improvise it. Also the backing guitar
holds the D chord at the end of the solo and into Riff 3.
Play Riff 3 x2 "...right in front of your eyes!"
Play Riff 4 x2 "...you ain't seen nothin' yet!"
Note: For this final chorus, he plays the second half of Riff 4 an additional
2 times at the very end. That's all!
Tab key:
12t15 = trill (fast hammer-on and pull-offs)
7' = tremolo pick note
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
* (under note) = palm mute
