Capo 3
Tuning:DADF#AD
(You don't really need to downtune both E strings because they are not played through
the song)
I recommend listening to the song for timing because it is played fast.

(let the last note ring)
I know it's a bit long but I wanted to make sure to show every little variation. Also
i'm not sure about the
bridge and the licks: Neil plays really fast so it's hard to see what he does, but it
still sounds good to me.
Sorry if it's a bit confusing and also feel free to send any corrections!
