|---------------------------------|                  
|---------------------------------|                   
|---------------------------------|       Darrell plays with artificial

|--4-----4-----5-----5-----4-----4--5-----5----5--4---|      about this
|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------2-----2--------|      part)             
                                      
|-----------------------------------------------------|

right after that riff hit a bunch of C#'s then a huge D -- 
	    here we go! !    

     This is the MASSIVE RIFF for the chorus            (right before
  P.M.                                                   the verse starts)

|--0-0--6-------0--5-------0--4-5-------|            --6-7-7---76--|

that chord in between the end of the chorus riff and the verse is a hard F#


  the verse riff is just a palm muted progression of notes-
	       it goes from E to G# to E to A#
			   
    P.M.----------           1st time only

    this riff's kinda tricky -- it's hard to keep the D# staccato

|------------------------------| this part's very strange
|------------------------------| to look at, just listen 
|-6-6-----6/7\6--66-----4------| to get the feel right
|-4-4--0--4/5\4--44--0--2-0--0-| (also, I think that slide
                                   from G# to A may
                                    actually be a bend)

then do a chromatic descent from A# into the blitzkrieg!

ok, solo's next-- you guys are on your own for that baby!!
	   There's a lot of cool bends and a TON of stretching involved


I suppose the last thing is the chorus and that descending Eb thing--
there's a harmony that's something like this on the last time--
                                
                                        RIGHT!
