Tune all guitars 1 step down.
I love this song. Dunno why. Anyways, this tab is the way my aunt and I figured it out;
it sounds a lot better than most of the tab I've seen. There are slight variations for
each time the main riffs are played, but it's usually an extra hammer-on, bend, or a slide.
I'm sure you can improvise them. There are also a few fills in the background, improvise.
Use heavy distortion and a pitch shifter.
Intro/Verse: G5 F#5 Em G5 F#5 Em C5
Main Riff 1:
d|---------------------------|
A|--\\5h7h8-5h7\\3-5/8-8~~~~~|
F|---------------------------|

Main Riff 2:

G|--------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------|
Main Riff 3: (replace this with riff1 for intro; use as third riff in the first verse)
d|---------------------------------|
A|--8-10-10b-10b-10br-8h10-8~~~~~--|

Main Riff 4:
d|------------------|
A|------------------|
F|--0h5h7-0-4-2b-0--|
C|------------------|
G|------------------|
D|------------------|
Chorus: D5 C#5 C5 (pick each note in the C5)
Bridge: (clean tone) G C Em
Solo: I'm still working on the solo. (The next version will be better)
A suggestion: During the chorus), Lars does what I call the
"hi-hat stomp" (just after the 'musharainabemadumb-da''). I like to pick the D5 harder
and then mute the strings (staccato) to match the drums. In other words:
D5 > > > > C#5 C5
d|--------------------------------------|

F|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7x-7x-7x-7x-6------5|

G|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5x-5x-5x-5x-4--3----|

Musharainabemadumb-da! Whack for
