When the 2nd chorus hits Riff-A is played 4 times by guitar one. Guitar 2 plays Riff-B throughout the 2nd verse/chorus, but before the verse starts a slightly different version of Riff-A is played 4 times, and the first note struck at the same time as the last note of the Interlude on Guitar 2 (a C5 power chord). It uses a sweeping wah effect which is created by steadily tapping the wah pedal as each note is struck. I'll use 2 symbols UNDER the bar to display how the pedal is used: + Tap _ Release Guitar 2 ----------------------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------------| ---------5-------6-------5--------------------------------------| -3---3-------3-------3-------3-----------6---8-----------5---6--| ---------------------------------4---4-----------3---3----------| + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ + _ After the second verse/chorus are over the second Interlude comes in. It as well uses a wah pedal and I will, again, uses the same symbols below the bar as the riff right up there ^. During this riff, Guitar 2 plays a variation of Riff-B.

That uses a lot of feedback at a varied degree of pitches which seem to change quite frequently. After he screams out "MOVIN ON!" comes the solo with some distortion and a whiny ring to it- Guitar 1- full V 1/2 ------------------11---------(8)------------------------------------- -11--------13------------11--11^---(11)---(8)------------------------ ------------------------------------------11^------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------10-(10)-8-10- --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1/2 V 1/2 V 1/2 V 1/2.......V --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- ---(0)------(0)---(0)--------------------7h8-----------------------7- ----------------------------10----8--10---------------------10-10---- ----9^---(9)-9^(9)-9^(9)-9---------------------8^-------(8)---------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1/2 V 1/2.......V full 1/2 (hold) -----------------------------------8---------11--------13--13^-------| -------4-------------7------------11^---(11)-------------------------| -7-----7^---(7)-----10^------(10)------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------------------------------| .. that may seem somewhat hard to read, so just take a moment and look over while slowly playing each note. It shouldn't take too long too long to get the hang of. Right after that, Guitar 1 once again cuts into Riff-A, but not quite as loudly this time. During the third verse Guitar 2 plays a higher-pitched variation of Riff-B, and breaks into Riff-B during the 3rd chorus. 3rd verse: Guitar 2- -8--------------------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------9---------------8--------------| ----------------------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------------| After the 3rd chorus is done, back to Interlude 2, blah, blah, blah... bunch of feed back..."I'm gonna use you, And abuse you. I gotta know what's In-side you..." ..it ends with the whiny ring of the 7th fret at the G-string. -Poodgie
