Difficulty: intermediate
This is my first tab that I did by ear so yeah...

The whole song is pretty distorted so put your "gain" & "distortion" all the way up.  
the tabs I found had the opening played with messed up chords that all sounded terrible, I 
tabbed it so listeners can identify it.

~ = let it ring a little
b = bend
h = hammer on
p = pull off

Intro

Listen to the song to get the pattern, it really just sounds like messy picking, but 
well with the distortion.

( I'm not going to tab the solo because I suck at solos and it will take longer than 5 minutes :P )


Keep Repeating all of this Stuff as it is in the song...

Yup that's all Im going to do...
So listen to the song, learn it, and play it...this song requires a lot of modifications 
the amp for the right sound...
Keep on Rockin in the Free World
