Tuning: D A D G B E

kb= hold that bend while playing that note.
gb[]= raise that bend another step to make it sound like the note in the brackets.

   +The trill on the 10tr(11) means you do hammer ons really fast, but in this case
it's just one 
     fast hammer on. +

   +The bends above mean you bend the string up and down those times. Like a wave
    like motion. Listen to this part of the song to help you out on those bends.

Guitar 1: Tapping Riff
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-15T-3-------18T-6------17T-5------18T-6-----------------------------------| +The
x12 means you play each 
G|-------x12---------x12--------x12--------x12-------------------------------| 
tapping 12 times.+
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
  +You put your fret finger on the small # (3, 6, 5), and you tap the 
   high notes (15, 18, 17) with your middle finger. Keep your fret finger
   on the small # as you tap and release the high note. It takes some practice
    to get this process down. It's almost like some Eddie Van Halen solos.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Guitar 1 does the Tapping Riff one more time.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

After the other guitars do their riffs, guitar 1 does these fast sweep picks:
In order to do these, you should know how to sweep pick, and alternative picking.
Also, you should know appreggios. This is all played by Synyster Gates.
