I'd tab out some of the ones I know.

Does anyone know how to play coup d'etat? If so PLEASE tell me, I can't
be bothered to work it out :) I'll probably end up doing just that
anyway...

This song is in standard tuning: EADGBe (low to high)

For this song use a lot of gain, a fair amount of treble and a lowish
to medium bass setting; you want quite an attacky sound.

A bit of notation:

M  =  palm mute
/ \=  upward and downward slides respectively
~  =  why don't you wiggle it, just a little bit?
p  =  pull off
( )=  Ghost notes. Might be there, might not be there. Hinted at but not
      played with full intent. Spooky, huh?
