-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: TheOmegaKitten
Email: yea right

Tuning: Half step down

Hey guys (and maybe girls) this is my first attempt at my own tab and let me 
start off by saying PTH is the shizzit, most definitely one of my favorite bands 
for sure. I know theres a lot of other tabs on this already (most of them wrong 
and unreadable) but i made this tab mainly to help beginner players (not unlike 
myself) to master this beautiful piece of art. Also because when i tried learning 
this song for myself most of the tabs already on here were wrong in some areas 
and right on in others, so this like me putting it all in one place. I am almost %100 
sure on the accuracy of this tab and will bet your mother on it. Most of this was 
done by ear to be sure, but theres only so far you can go just by going on ear with 
a song like this so this instructional video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaFY01h0Pn0)
I found was immensely helpful. Just to be clear, I tried to make this as easy as possible 
to read for everyone, I split the riffs based on what I believed to be the best way to 
learn this crazy song and did real hard to make the rhythm evident but if you cant 
make one out I suggest referring back to video. So without further to do.....


It Begins: Play the intro here three times, note though that after the first time 
do a slide up the neck from the fifteen on the e string 15\

Notice the rhythm change when playing the E power chords, again refer to the video for help on
rhythm. Basically its the same pattern as the one before, easy right?! By the way, when you reach
the x2, repeat this whole section not just that bar its next to and then finish up 
with the last riffs.

Youre probably wondering why I split it up this way (haha). Again refer back to the video for help
on rhythm.

The arpeggios look harder than they are, but theyre actually pretty easy 
to learn just hard to get up to speed (I still dont have them up to speed). 
Just take it slow and hopefully the speed will come with time, at least thats 
what im hoping haha.
