Tabbed by: Steve Davis (davisgh@erols.com) Additions/Corrections by: Michael Slusarz (slusarz@bigworm.colorado.edu) Jagmstr17 (Jagmstr17@aol.com) Jeff Schertz (jeffschertz@yahoo.com) The 311 Guitar Archive -- http://bigworm.colorado.edu/311archive/ * This song was recorded in studio on a 7-string guitar. This tab is laid out for a 6-string guitar in standard tuning. This is NOT exactly how it is played on the album, but it still works well. * Additionally, there is most likely more than two guitars playing on the album at once (Nick and Tim separately?) - when they differ, it is noted below. Intro (w/Distortion, Palm Mute & Octaver): ========================================== N.C.

* Note - this will not sound right UNLESS you own an octaver. If you don't, You'll have to tune the 6 string down to C# and that makes it mighty difficult to play the rest of the song (or else just heavily palm mute). Riff 1 (w/Distortion): ====================== F# D/ C#/ A C#/ A G# A (All 5th Chords) A G# G#
