Near the end of the song, the verse riff is played
with a varied rhythm:

The song ends with riff A, bending those high E notes when coming to
the song's completion.
Guitar:
During the chorus, the guitar just follows the bass with powerchords. During the verses one guitar is playing along with the bass with just single notes. Another guitar plays this basic riff with lots of variations and wild picking (listen to the song):

after a while it slides up

At some point there's a long bend on the 11th fret of the G string.
All these Scratch Acid tabs are by the same fellow (me) so if you'd
like to say something to me, offer corrections, or if you have Scratch
Acid tabs that you'd like me to submit if you're too lazy to do it
yourself, e-mail me at saten@cheerful.com. Enjoy!
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SCRATCH ACID tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
