first, third and fourth down beats.

Play this over the break between Verses 1 and 2 in sync with the drums-
note: If your drummer doesn't play this beat, play to whatever he is playing.

For the chorus, it sounds nice and chunky to play each beat. (I also
"release mute" with my left hand on all but the open notes and the
F#'s at the end of the riff)

Verse 3 starts out the same as Verse 1 and 2, then changes to follow the
pattern of the chorus when the vocals kick in.
First play this: Then play this over the vocals:
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

After the second chorus comes the guitar solo. Rather than going back to
the same old single notes over the changes, I strum power chords on the
upper part of the neck. Here are the positions. Strum once on the first
down beat and again on the next two up beats like this:
boom-ba..ba boom-ba..ba

After the solo, come out and play these notes over the last Verse
(which is just the chorus sung as a verse).

After the last chorus, go back to the chord strumming twice and end on
the B at the 14th fret. My first tabbing attempt so, Good Luck!
