I'm working on the solo as we speak, i'll have it sometime
this weekend probably. The chorus is as close as i can get
it for now, it sounds right but it feels wrong if that makes
any sense at all.
Standard Tuning
Notation:
PM-Palm Mute
AH-Artificial Harmonic
Intro/Verse Riff
[G5] [A5] [A#5] [A5] [F5] [E5] [E5] [D5]
|--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------9----9----7-| |-5--7----8----7------3----7-77-7-77-5-| |-3--5-55-6-66-5-5555-1-11-------------|
P.M. .. .. .... .. .. ..
The chord names above the staff will be important later so don't forget about 'em.
Chorus Riff
|-----------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------A.H.--| |-777777-8877..665577..443355..-5-7--8----| |-555555------------------------3-5-------|
This whole riff is Palm Muted except for the harmonic at the end.
The .. after the 7 and 5 mean i didn't bother to count how many times
to play that note, just play along with the music! Also the number
of A5 chords at the beginning vary sometimes.
Riff 3
|---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |----------5--------10------------| |-7--------3--------8-------2-4-5-| |-5------0--------0---------0-2-3-|
P.M. . . . . .
Let the chords ring.
Riff 4

Again, this riff is also entirely palm muted. Not too sure about this one either.

Ok here's the line for guitar 2 during the intro,
