This is the main riff i believe.. This riff leads up to the verse and is also played after the 1st chorus and as the outro.. Guitar 1 plays this 4 times and guitar 2 comes in with a higher octave of this after the 2nd time. MAIN RIFF.

This is my first tab so it might not be right, but it sounds close enough to me.. I havn't figured out the verse or anything else yet but when i do i'll add on to this. Enjoy :) \m/ ( -_-) \m/
