(free time) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes: -Bar lines indicate measures of 4/4 time. -**In this tab, dots (...) under a staff indicate the note or chord should be palm muted. Usually in my tabs dots under a staff are put in as a timing device, so they're being used differently in this tab. In the 1st Verse there are a lot of switches between palm muting and no palm muting, so I needed a more condensed way of showing it than the way I usually use. -In the 2nd Verse, the chromatically moving chords in Bars 2 and 4 aren't printed above the staff because there wasn't enough room. =...hold note or chord ~...vibrato /...slide up (This file is the transcriber's own work and represents their interpretation of the song.)
