Chords

This song is a lot of fun to play - especially for people who aren't usually playing more metalcore stuff! It isn't perfect but I think it's the best I could do and a little bit better than some tabs I found online! If you have anything to improve, feel free to comment! [Intro] Without tapping:
C#|-0h7h8p7----------------8p0-8p0--------------------------------------------|
G#|---------8/5---4x-----5----------4x----------------------------------------|
E |--------------------5------------------------------------------------------|   2x
B |---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

With tapping:
l = left hand tap
r = right hand tap
    l l r l r l        l l r l r l
C#|---7-8p7--------------3-8p3-7p3--------------------------------------------|
G#|-5-------8p5----4x--1------------4x----------------------------------------|
E |---------------------------------------------------------------------------|   2x
B |---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
[Pre-Chorus] I will just write out the chords and not the strumming pattern. I think it's pretty easy to figure out
