Chords
This is my first tab that I did by ear so yeah...
The whole song is pretty distorted so put your "gain" & "distortion" all the way up.
the tabs I found had the opening played with messed up chords that all sounded terrible, I
tabbed it so listeners can identify it.
~ = let it ring a little
b = bend
h = hammer on
p = pull off
Intro
Listen to the song to get the pattern, it really just sounds like messy picking, but
well with the distortion.

( I'm not going to tab the solo because I suck at solos and it will take longer than 5 minutes :P )
Keep Repeating all of this Stuff as it is in the song...
Then...around 3:50

Yup that's all Im going to do...
So listen to the song, learn it, and play it...this song requires a lot of modifications
the amp for the right sound...
Keep on Rockin in the Free World
