Tuning: This is tuned down half a step and then to drop D: In other words (Db,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb)

The guitar needs fuzz or distortion throughout the song. I used my Big Muff PI and it 
sounded great.



These are the basic main 3 riffs used in the song:


Riff 1:

e|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|00000000000000000000000000000000999999997777777772222222122222222|
A|00000000000000000000000000000000999999997777777772222222122222222|
D|00000000000000000000000000000000999999997777777772222222122222222|


This bit I am unsure of the exact notation but if you play the open sixth sting and 
throw in some twelth fret it should be fine

Riff 2 part on open string (what i do mainly):

e|--------------------|
B|--------------------|
G|--------------------|
D|--------------------|
A|--------------------|
D|00001200012001200120| It's not fret 1 and 2 but fret 12


Riff 3 (Effectively riff 1 but only on the sixth string.):

e|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|00000000000000000000000000000000999999997777777772222222122222222|
