This song is pretty easy to play. The intro goes something like this....

e ---------8-8------------------------------------------------------------------
B ---5-8-5-5-5-5-5-8-5----------------------------------------------------------
G ---6-6-6-6---6-6-6-6--REPEAT X4 W/CLEAN TONE----------------------------------
D ---7-7-7-7---7-7-7-7----------------------------------------------------------
A ---0-0-0-0---0-----0----------------------------------------------------------
E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next part with the drums and bass is the same except distorted.The verse is 
same with this riff at the end of each block...

e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G --4-4-x-x-x-x-7-7-------------------------------------------------------------
D --4-4-x-x-x-x-7-7-------------------------------------------------------------
A --2-2-x-x-x-x-5-5-------------------------------------------------------------
E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just listen to the tune to figure which bit goes where. Next is the chorus. I`m 
sure about this but it`s pretty much right I think.....

e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G ------------10-10-9-----9-9-9-/13-13-13---------------------------------------
D --7-7-7--10-10-10-9-----9-9-9-/13-13-13---------------------------------------
A --7-7-7--10-8--8--7-----7-7-7-/11-11-11---------------------------------------
E --5-5-5--8--------0-----0-0-0-------------------------------------------------

You`ll have to listen fo the strum. I think the 11 power chord is wrong but I`m 
sure.

The bassline basically follows the power chords but in the verse it goes.....

E ---/555555-/555555-/555555-/555555----

I`m not sure about the amount of times the A is played but you can listen for th
The verse is exactly the same as the root note of the power chords. For the July
lied... bit I play the notes from the chorus in the same order but different tim
omit the high G#.
