{Lots of distortion OR fire up the old Big Muff} 
 
This is {MAIN RIFF A}: Play 4x's solo, then drums come in. 
||---------------x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---| 
||---------------x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---| 
||---7--------7--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---| 
||---------------x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---| 
||---5--------5--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---| 
||------0--0-----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---| 
                 {VERY light palm mute} 
 
Play {MAIN RIFF A 8x's under the band. 
On the fourth time with the band {GUITAR 2} plays this: 
||-----| 
||-15~-| 
||-----| 
||-----| 
||-----| 
||-----| 
 
Then comes a drum fill and BOOM: 
{GUITAR 1} and {GUITAR 2} play {MAIN RIFF A 12x's in unison. 
on 5th and 9th time, play this fill: 
||-----------------------------------| 
||-----------------------------------| 
||11/12-1211-11/14--14/16--17~~-----| 
||-----------------------------------| 
||-9/10-10-9--9/12--12/14--15~~-----| 
||-----------------------------------| 
 
Play this 4x's directly after 
the {MAIN RIFF} above: 
/---------------------------- 
{MAIN RIFF B}: 
||----------------x-x-x-x-x-x------------------------------------------| 
||----------------x-x-x-x-x-x------------------------------------------| 
||--7---7-7--7-7--x-x-x-x-x-x--to-end----7-----------------------------| 
||----------------x-x-x-x-x-x-----------------5------------------------| 
||--5---5-5--5-5--x-x-x-x-x-x------------5----5-(sustain)--into singing| 
||----------------x-x-x-x-x-x-----------------5------------------------| 
    ^          ^  {light palm mute} 
^ - emphasize these strokes 
 
Drums and base under singing: 
     
 I hear your winter   
 I hear you rain   
 I've failed your summer ways   
 And I feel no pain   
    
This gets play under the following: 
 ||----------------| 
 ||----------------| 
 ||--7--7----------| 
 ||--7--7----5-----| 
 ||--5--5----5-----| 
 ||----------5-----| 
 I hear what you are 
 And I feel no pain   
 I hear what you are   
 And I feel no pain   
    
 
Then another drum fill into: This part is tuff 
{MAIN RIFF} 15x's , throughout this whole part. 
Like before, these fills are placed according to the how many times the 
{MAIN RIFF} has been played. 
 
On the 5th time play this riff 3 time: 
||---------------------------| 
||---------------------------| 
||11/12-1211-11/14--14~~----| 
||---------------------------| 
||-9/10-10-9--9/12--12~~----| 
||---------------------------| 
 
then: 
 
||-----------------------------------| 
||-----------------------------------| 
||11/12-1211-11/14--14/16--17~~-----| 
||-----------------------------------| 
||-9/10-10-9--9/12--12/14--15~~-----| 
||-----------------------------------| 
 
then starts some crazy stuff..somthing like 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-18~~---18---18-18---18-18--18-18-18-18--19----19-19---19-19--19-19-19-19| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-16~~---16---16-16---16-16--16-16-16-16--17----17-17---17-17--17-17-17-17| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-21----21-21---21-21--21-21-21-21-21-21-21-21-21-21----------------------| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-19----19-19---19-19--19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19--into-some-other-stuff 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
 
THEN starts some soloing that i'm too lazy to figure out right now. 
Keep in mind that all this is being played under the {MAIN RIFF A thats 
being played 15 times.  Just listen to the CD and fake it :) 
 
 
 
{just base here}: quiet singing, a few pick scrape with some effects 
 I hear you fade away 
 And I hear you crawl   
 I gave my life away   
 And I feel no pain   
 And I feel no pain   
 And I feel no pain   
 And I feel your pain   
    
 And she was my lover so sweet   
 And she was my angel   
 And what I've recovered of me   
 I put into a box underneath my bed   
    
 When you lie in your bed   
 And you lie to your self   
 When you lie in your bed   
 And you lie to your self   
    
 Bang bang you're dead hole in your head   
 Bang bang you're dead hole in your head   
 Bang bang you're dead hole in your head   
 Bang bang you're dead hole in your head   
 
 
 
 ||----------------| 
 ||----------------| 
 ||--7--7----------| 
 ||--7--7----5-----| 
 ||--5--5----5-----| 
 ||----------5-----| 
 I hear what you are 
 And I feel no pain   
 I hear what you are   
 And I feel no pain   
 
 
Then, to finish: 
This 2x's: 
||------------------------------------------------------------------- 
||------------------------------------------------------------------- 
||-11--11--1111--111111111111--12---12---12-12---12-12-12-12-12-12--- 
||------------------------------------------------------------------- 
||--9---9---9-9---9-9-9-9-9-9--10---10---10-10---10-10-10-10-10-10--- 
||------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
  ---------------------------------------| 
  ---------------------------------------| 
  -14---14---14-14--14-14-14-14-14-14----| 
  ---------------------------------------| 
  -12---12---12-12--12-12-12-12-12-12----| 
  ---------------------------------------| 
 
 
Then this: The drums match the strums here 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
||-7---7---7--------7---7---7--------------------7-7--7---7----7------7----| 
||-7---7---7--------7---7---7--7-7--7---7----7------7----| 
||-5---5---5--------5---5---5--------------------5-5--5---5----5------5----| 
||-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
