This song was originally tabbed by Stu (Me664@37.com)
and then retabbed by Chris Sokn sokn@hotmail.com

Almost everyone had the idea, but there were majorly noticable
parts that were left out, progressions that were missed and 
subtle things like open strings within riffs making the riffs
incorrect. These are the correct tabs (as far as I know, I didn't 
have a bass in front of me at the time while doing this tab.)

Prechorus 3x

(this is if you have a 5 string, the bass palm mutes
while sliding form 2/3ish - 1 on the low B, and it's
meant to sound muddy.)
