For the second half of the bridge, it sounds like pinch harmonics instead of palm-mutes, something like this: D|-------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------| F|-----------------7/10-----------------10\7-| C|-----------------x-x------------------x--x-| G|-7ph-----5ph-----5/8--7ph-----5ph-----8\5-| C|-----6ph-----8ph----------6ph-----8ph------| I'm hearing this during the chorus: D|--------------------------------------------0------------| A|--------------------------------------------0------------| F|--------------------------------------------5------------| C|-2--5-2-x-2--2-x-x--x-2--5-2-x-2--2-x-x-x-x-5--and so on-| G|-2--5-2-x-2--2-x-x--x-2--5-2-x-2--2-x-x-x-x-3------------| C|-2--5-2-x-2--2-x-x--x-2--5-2-x-2--2-x-x-x-x--------------| Kinda hard to tell though for sure since (once again) the guitar gets really drowned out in the mix during that part.

Thanks for a kickass tab!

thank you for doing this
