Distorted Second guitar basically repeats the following
during the verse:
D / F D / F D C5 D
D / F D / F G A
For the chorus, repeat (including the beginning C (may be a
C5 if you can't be bothered) when repeating):
C G F G Bb D
Pure Massacre!! Pure Massacre!!
The lead out of the chorus takes you
straight back into the verse chords.
There is an interlude:
D Bb C G D Bb C G
There's people crying ..... there's people dying.
D Bb C G D Bb C5
But someone's taking ..... it all...
These chords are also used at the end:

I figured this song out in "Drop D" tuning so you'll
have to tune your top string to "D". It's a pretty easy
song and I'm pretty sure I tabbed it right but if you
have any questions, comments, corrections, or additions
feel free to e-mail them to me.
