Wits All Been Done Before

PICKING RIFF 1(Clean) - This part starts off at the beginning along with
the intro chords and repeats 2x but it's connected to the first half of
the verse(repeat another 2x). And then it comes in right after the first
chorus(repeat 2x) and is connected to the first half of the second verse
(repeat another 2x for this as well). Then it is played 2x at the very
end. When you listen to the song you'll know what I mean.

this whole part is PALM MUTED ->EXCEPT<- for the last seven notes which
are picked quite quickly and ring out

PRE-CHORUS - This is the part that comes right after the verse and just
before the chorus. the x's, in this case, mean PALM muted(so do the ones
in my "For The Band" tab).

MAIN CHORUS - Let it ring out with lots and lots of dist. On the second
and last chorus this is repeated 2x. There is another guitar in there
doing fill in parts, but they're pretty easy to figure out so I'm almost
sure you'll figure it out by listening to the song. Unless you've never
played a guitar before.

PICKING RIFF 2(Clean) - This is played right after the second chorus ONLY
and it is different than "PICKING RIFF 1". And funner to play too.

AFTER "PICKING RIFF 2" RIFF - This is the part that comes right after
"Picking Riff 2". This part uses distortion. Some parts of it are PALM
MUTED and some parts are STOPPED after each chord strum to make it sound
sort of choppy. I labeled where to do that kind of stuff so you don't have
to figure it out yourself. Aren't I nice?

After this the chorus is played a few times again and the song ends
of with "Picking Riff 1" repeating 2 times. and that pretty much covers
everything. THIS IS EXACTLY RIGHT. I even played along with the actual
song to make SURE that it was not off. There IS another guitar that pops
in a couple of times but not very often and only to do little fill-in
parts. Most of the song is just one guitar.
