Chords: (Std Tuning)
[C#] [A] [D] [G#]  
 
 e: -9-- -5-- -10- -4--
 B: -9-- -5-- -10- -4--
 G: -10- -6-- -11- -5-- -+
 D: -11- -7-- -12- -6-- |- most of song played on these strings
 A: -11- -7-- -12- -6-- |- can even use power E's and omit G string
 E: -9-- -5-- -10- -4-- -+

Notes: Since I got no response from my original post, I've decided to ditch the capo and go with
bar chords, in hopes of hitting a different audience (rockers). With male vocals, I find
playing this a step or 2 down sounds better to me. Since these are all E-form bars, you can
easily play around with them to fit your style (ie, same formations, just move down a fret).
Oh yeah, and pretty much slide between all chords!

Alt Riff: (I find this a little high pitch/gay for me. The song is also really fast, so I
often play this. Basically, you can pick/strum anything in C# and A that goes low, mid, high,
mid and it sounds good)
