3 doors down, down poison.
This is a revision of my original version, which didn't have the solo and had
lyrics written incorrectly.
It's not too hard. Pretty easy, really, but a lot of fun to play.
All Power Chords, I think
Use Distortion

A C A E x1

Verse 1:

Pre-Chorus:

E G C B E x4
Chorus:
"Down Poison"
C A B E C A B (hold)

On the last run. Just hit the first note (e 16) then slide down
making sure every note sounds. That's the only way I could see
this solo being done. Email me if you have seen a video of the
solo and can correct me. I am not sure, but I think that this
could also be a tap solo.
This is my best guess.
Guitar 2 (During Solo):
Repeat throughout solo
e--------------------- B--------------------- G--------------------- D---2--2---5--7--9---- A---2--2---5--7--9---- E---0--0---3--5--7----

Bass (During Solo):
G--------------------- D--------------------- A--------------------- E---0--0---3--5--7----

Chorus:

C A B E x7
C A B x1
Pre-Chorus:
"Welcome to my world"
G C B G E x3
G C B G x1
Chorus:
"Down Poison"
C A B E x3
C A B x1
Outro:
E power chord (Might just be the 1 and 5 and not the higher
octave 02xxxx, I can't quite tell).
rhythm:
s-E-s-s-s-s-E-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s x3

s = sixteenth note
e = eighth note
