The first is to get the right tuning--it's what I call the "drop F#" tuning--lower the G string 1/2 step to an F#. Whew, that was easy. The other hard part is notated later. In addition, Alice in Chains detunes everything by 1/2 step, so the actual tuning is (low freq to hi freq) Eb, Ab, Db, F, Bb, Eb. But I'm going to pretend were using E, A, D, F#, B, E. Here goes.... intro, verse: F#5 A5~Asus2 Eb-> E 02-0----5--0--0- Bb-> B 02-0----5--0--0- F--> F# 00-0----7--3--3- repeat for duration of intro, 2 verses Db-> D 44-4----7--2--2- (Ain't found a way....leads me to nowhere) Ab-> A 44-4----0--0--0- Eb-> E 02-0----|------- pre-chorus: B Asus2 F#5 B Asus2 |-------0-------02-0----|-------|-------0------- 0-------0-------02-0----|-------0-------0------- 0-------3-------00-0----|-------0-------3------- 4-------2-------44-4----|-------4-------2------- 2-------0-------44-4----|-------2-------0------- |-------|-------02-0----|-------|-------|------- Here they come...

Don't step on any mines while playing (even though it'd be COOL!). enjoy
