so I’m tabbing it out myself. Cool song, listen to it for the timing. You’ll
kind of have to because there’s a lot of drum fills in the song.

As performed on Sevendust
It sounds to me like they used Drop-C, and then tuned the guitars down another
step, but I decided to save my time (and yours) by tabbing it out in Drop-D. It
saves time because I really don’t like going to these weird tunings, but that’s just me.
