The song basically start on a Gm with a Cm in there a la verse, with a bit
of soloing. The soloing is based around G note on the 3rd sting (xx5xxx) and
the C note on the 4th string (xxx5xx). It just messes around with a few
alternations in there, palm mutes and slides. Listen to it, its not hard to
figure out.

Its a simple chord progression. There are palm mutes during some verses.

tell.

Thats it. The verse is the same for most of the song, with a few ad—libs in
it. The chorus may be a bit off, but its similar.
