The intro (0:00 - 0:14) is bass,
you will hear a tapping sound
(hit your pick on your pickguard a few times)
This is the first guitar riff:
RIFF A
e-------------------|
B-------------------|
G-------------------|
D-2-2-3-0-2-2-3-0-2-|
A-2-2-3-0-2-2-3-0-2-|
D-2-2-3-0-2-2-3-0-2-| X4
(then play it again but only on the low D)
The chorus:
(what I think it is anyways)
*=palm mute
e---------------------------|
B---------------------------|
G---------------------------|
D-0-1-2-3---0-1-2-3---0*-0*-|
A-0-1-2-3---0-1-2-3---0*-0*-|
D-0-1-2-3---0-1-2-3---0*-0*-|
REPEAT
RIFF A Again
Chorus again:
Now this part I'm not totally sure of, it's a guess:
(/=slide)
e-------------------------|
B-------------------------|
G-------------------------|
D-2-1-5-7-4/1---2-1-5-3-2-|
A-2-1-5-7-4/1---2-1-5-3-2-|
D-2-1-5-7-4/1---2-1-5-3-2-|
Play that again but change the last note to 3
This is my guess at the next part:
e-----------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------|
D---0---/5---/3---0*-0*-0*-0*-0*-0*-0*-0*-|
RIFF A AGAIN (once) then:
(guess)
e------------------------|
B------------------------|
G------------------------|
D---2-2-3-4-5--2-2-3-4-3-|
A---2-2-3-4-5--2-2-3-4-3-|
D---2-2-3-4-5--2-2-3-4-3-|
Here's one of two of the following riffs
(guess)
e---------------------|
B---------------------|
G---------------------|
D---------------------|
A---------------------|
D---2-2-2/7---2-2-2/0-|
Then:
e------------------------|
B------------------------|
G------------------------|
D------------------------|
A------------------------|
D---2-2-3-4-5--2-2-3-4-3-|
That's all I know. I think the song ends on open
pick scrapes. It's not hard.
LYRICS:
Culture's dependent on people pretending belief
It's so condescending, how I'm apprehending a need
It's time for you to open your eyes and decide
If what you see is real, do you believe in what you feel?
Leader's intendent on breaking and bending belief
Moronic descendants upholding an ancient disease
It's time to open your eyes and decide
If what you see is real, do you believe in what you feel?
WAKE UP TIME TO SEE
THE SHIT THATS HAPPENING
YOU'VE BEEN FORCE-FED A DREAM
AND FIND IT COMFORTING
BUT ITS NOT COMFORTING
It's not comforting me
Stand up on your own
See right through, See right through
See right through the point of you
It controls you, Hate controls you
Fear controls you, Greed controls you
It controls you, Hate controls you
Fear controls you, Greed controls you
Fear controls you
