I know it looks a little confusing with all the hammer-ons and pull-offs, but it's actually
quite simple once you play it.
*DON'T MIND THE TEMPO, RHYTHM OR STRUMMING, THIS IS JUST THE NOTES*
Standard tuning
No capo
INTRO
I recommend playing the bass notes; everything on the E string, with
your thumb(wrap it around the guitar's neck). If you're a beginner, and you're finding this
hard, just don't play the bass notes.

VERSE 1
The only instrument here is drums, so I play these three power chords instead.
This is supposed to look like a fretboard. "f" stands for "fret".
The numbers refer to the specific finger used to play each note.
1 = Index finger
2 = Middle finger
3 = Ring finger
4 = Little finger
o = The string is played
x = The string is not played
m = The string is muted
*LOOK AT THE FRETS, THEY DO NOT ALWAYS GO FROM 1 TO 9*

The rest of the song is instrumental. It's basically just repeating the chords and the
finger picking from above in various ways, and with a lot of different instruments. If
you can't figure out the correct order, just send me an email and I'll tab the rest, but
I think most guitar players will be able to do it on their own. Hope you like it! Cheers.
