guitarbmee - 2006-01-10
on the intro, i'm pretty sure that the picking stuff after each few measures of the pounding guitars is actually harmonics like so...

D:---------7*
A:-----7*----
D:-4*----4*--

and the one time when its just the one guitar it is slightly different:

D:-------------
A:-----7*------
D:-4*----4*7*7*

the bass plays what you had tabbed but an octave lower on top of these harmonics by the guitars... hope this helps, God bless ya ~Ben

Hey I was just listening to the song and I'm thinkin' the beginning after the intro goes down instead of up. So instead of this:
G[-9s11-11-x9s11-11-x12/12/12/12-]
D[-9s11-11-x9s11-11-x-x-x--x--x--]
A[-7s-9--9-x7s-9--9-x10/10/10/10-]x3
D[-7s-9--9-x7s-9--9-x------------]

It's more like this:
G[-14s11-11-x14s11-11-x12/12/12/12-]
D[-14s11-11-x14s11-11-x-x-x--x--x--]
A[-12s-9--9-x12s-9--9-x10/10/10/10-]x3
D[-12s-9--9-x12s-9--9-x------------]

I don't know, I could be wrong. Otherwise great tab! I've been looking for a correct tab of this song for a while. God bless!

Hey, whats up, I was just watching a video of them playing this, and it actually looked like instead of the keyboard, the guitar played this
tl_guitarnut - 2006-06-29
D | ----------|
A | -------5--| 4x
D | -7-7-7--7-|

oops forgot to put this on
E-rock - 2006-07-23
hey adam! i havent played the song or anything, but that part in the verse you aid was keyboard, is actually guitar. i saw them play it at kings island. he played it so fast...it was insane. anyways, just tryin to help.
Skater91 - 2007-08-29
The verse part that sounds like a piano is played by guitar cause I saw them in Texas and the guitarist was playing something there. I think that there is more to the intro, like this.

G-----------------------12-12-12---
D-9/11-11--9/11-11-------x--x--x---
A-9/11-11--9/11-11--0h7-10-10-10---
D-7/9--9---7/9--9------------------
Its not right but I think theres somthing missing. By the way, great tab. I give it a 5!
