| I got lazy after figuring out the solo tab, so there are varies palm |
| mutes and more repeats on the verses/chorus parts than what I put down, |
| but it's very easy to pick up on from the album, or especially a live |
| All the rest of the song's little fills and riffs that you hear are those |
| two chords, Dsus4 and Esus4. The other chords listed in the lyrics above |
