  This is not from any tab book. I don't have the tab book for this album,
nor do I think that one exists right now. I heard it all with my own two ears
and played along with it with my own guitar. This TAB is my representation of
the song. Some things may be wrong, probably because I was too lazy to really
figure out some parts. You can do that on your own.

TUNING:  I used my keyboard to figure it out:
  Tune your A string to: 447.3Hz, instead of 440Hz. Then tune all other
 strings according to your A string. Finally, tune all strings down a whole
 step, and then DROP D!!!

I'm not kidding, this is correct: I heard it myself.
  [6]-B    [3]-E
  [5]-F#   [2]-G#               all @ 447.3Hz
  [4]-B    [1]-C#

Legend:
  x = Mute string
  . = Partial Mute/Palm mute, whatever
  ~ = vibrate

  after 2nd ending, keep shortening that riff until you get here:

        back to intro riff.  "When I die, I cast a shadow!"

     All the riffs for the intro, verses and chorus are up there,
   just find them and arrange them to how the song sounds.

 Here's the cool-ass bridge part with the harmonics:

  harm.         4x                 2x                  2x

  harm.

|-5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-|   or you can play  |-5---5---5---5---|

|-----------------|  they're the same. |-----------------|

The cool mute-gallop riff with extreme double-bass
|-----------------|---------|
|-----------------|---------|

|-0-3-5-6-5-0-3-5-|-0-2-3-2-|
|-0-3-5-6-5-0-3-5-|-0-2-3-2-|
|-0-3-5-6-5-0-3-5-|-0-2-3-2-|
  . . . . . . . .   . . . .
 4/4 time           2/4 time

  then play it later without muting.

Then go through some other riffs that you already know from above.

The rip-ass bass thingy: Guitar plays the same exact riff later.

   Then they all start talking and yelling at each other...
