Tabbed By: Dustin (ScreamK0RN@aol.com)

Key: d=double stroke
    -3- over a group of notes means those notes are triplets.
    --6--- over a group of notes means those notes are sextuplets.
    CC1 is a normal sounding crash cymbal.
    CC2 is a higher, almost splashy type cymbal.
    CHI is a china cymbal.

Note: For most of the song, there is a hand drum-sounding
thing playing this rhythm part, but it sounds fine if you 
play it softly and muffled on a snare drum with snares off.
