Intro (this is actually two guitars, because the dissonant
open string part continues even as the scrapes come in).
|-------------------------XX-XX--|

"Chorus" (Two guitars, both doubling the same riff)
|--------------------------------------XX-XX--|
|--------------------------------------XX-XX--|

|--5-5-5-5-0h5-5-55-5/8-8-8-88-8/10-10-XX-XX--|

|------------------XX-----xx--x----XX-Xx--|
|--5-5-5-5-0h5-5-5-XX-1-1-xx--x3-3-XX-XX--|
|--5-5-5-5-0h5-5-5-XX-1-1-xx--x3-3-XX-XX--|
|--5-5-5-5-0h5-5-5-XX-1-1-xx--x3-3-XX-XX--|
Then, the verse comes in. Simple as can be:
|----------------------------------XX-XX--|
|----------------------------------XX-XX--|
|-------------------------xx--x----XX-Xx--|
|--5------------------1-1-xx--x3-3-XX-XX--| 2x
|--5------------------1-1-xx--x3-3-XX-XX--|
|--5------------------1-1-xx--x3-3-XX-XX--|
After the verse, we have a hard stop with this break:
Note, these are 2s, not 22s.
|----------------------|
|----------------------| The last chord comes in waves,
|----------------------| by flicking the volume knob
|--22----22----<<<<<5--| back and forth as the note
|--22----22----<<<<<5--| holds, leading into the chorus.
|--22----22----<<<<<5--|
The chorus is the same as the first time it was played.
After that, the second verse is the same as the first,
only with a little piano low in the mix.
Then, we segue into the middle section of the song.
Here, we've got some fat chords like so:
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
|--5----8----10-11-13--15--|
|--5----8----10-11-13--15--|
|--3----6----8--9--11--13--|
|--3----6----8--9--11--13--|
That section ends on the hard stops, with some scrapes to end:
|--------------XX-XX--|
|--------------XX-XX--|
|--------------XX-XX--|
|--22----22----XX-XX--|
|--22----22----XX-XX--|
|--22----22----XX-XX--|
The chorus riffs play once, and the then, we get a short solo
that runs over the chorus riffs. Play this once, and then turn
around and play it again.
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--8-7-------8-7-------8-7-----8v-/10 10v-/11-11v--|
|------8-7v------8-7v------8-7---------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|
|--/13-13v-/15-15v--<15v>-15-15\13-13--12v--|
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
|--13-12---------13-12---------|
|--------13-12v--------13-12v--|
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
And that's it. The song ends with a fade to piano, and then silence.
