--------------------------------------------
Notes: This is one of the best songs on the album, this tab is almost 100% complete
the bridge needs alittle work, I'll fix it A.S.A.P. Also on the Part in the intro that
says (A1) use lite phaser and lite distortion then just lite distortion in the rest of
the intro.



Intro: Right as the song begins you do A1 and let it ring for like 5 secs. Then after
that you proceed with A2 straight into A3. Then while playing A3 when the time of the
song is about 00:17 A4 comes in which is a second guitar.
