Drop D Tuning
pm - palm mute
* - harmonic
\ - slide
h - hammer on
p - pull off
~ - let ring out
7x
7x - mute strings after strum
5x
I think they recorded the intro in regular E tuning. I dont know if they
play this song live because the rest of the song is in drop D, and the intro
is a lot easier to play in regular tuning. If you wanna play it in D, tune
your guitar and move the first note to the second fret.

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 YELLOWCARD 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.
