Tuning: Drop-A# (A# F A# D# G C)
Not that many special notes about this one. It's pretty
straightforward. When listing one fingered power chords
that are strummed quickly, I do tend to mark them adjacent
to each other. So pay attention to the context, and don't take
a "22" as meaning the 22nd fret. In this case it means "2-2".
And in the bridge, the notes progress extremely quickly, so it
may take a while to get that down. That's about it, enjoy!
