Chords

Trey starts the song with:

  A   C   G   D              A   E   Em   D
                  H                       * - toggle your selector switch back
and forth :)
|----------------------------------------------|
|-10---8---8---7--------------5---5---5----3---|
|--9---9---7---7--------------6---4---4----2---|
|-11--10---9---7-----7---7----7---6---5----4---|
|----------------7-9---9-----------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|

This is done twice as an intro, then there's a drum break, and then this same progression is used fo the verses. it's played two more times as a verse. The chorus goes like this: A D E D played 4X Then play the verse progression once (w. distortion), then 2 more times as the second verse. then there's another chorus. The break is: C D A G C D E (let the E chord hang for a while) During that hanging E, trey does a little fill like this:

   H P H P H P H P H P H
|--------------------------|
|-8-9-8-9-8-9-8-9-8-9-8-9--|
|-7-9-7-9-7-9-7-9-7-9-7-9--|
|--------------------------|

Then the chorus part is played two more times. There's a solo over the verse progression, and the song ends on a big A chord. here's a good starting point for the solo... just a bunch of unison bends you can play each of them twice or let it ring out. once you get to the final unison bend, just go nuts in F#m penatonic for a few measures until the progression starts over again

e-12-------15------10------5------12---------------|
b-12b(14)--15b(17)-10b(12)-5b(7)--12b(14)----------|
g--------------------------------------------------|
d--------------------------------------------------|
a--------------------------------------------------|
e--------------------------------------------------|

or another way it shows up a lot live

e-15---------------------------------------|
b-18b(20)-20------15-------10------17------|
g---------19b(21)-14b(16)--9b(11)--16b(18--|
d------------------------------------------|
a------------------------------------------|
e------------------------------------------|
