This is a brutal and awesome song, and really fun to play. Enjoy! This is from the album
which is quite possibly the greatest album ive ever heard. These are the notes i use to
this song, and it sounds accurate to me.
NOTE: At the end of the bridge, i know those last few notes are different than how they
it the first time around, but i just can't figure it out. dont email me or anything, i
its wrong.
