  I heard this song the other day and it blew me away, so I had to figure it
out.

Verse 1:  Acoustic and vocals only

G-|-4b(5)u4--2-----2-----------2-----------4----------------------------------|

Repeat  4 times

    You may ask "how the heck is it possible to play this?"  I personally
think that Skeoch has evolved an extra finger to play this stuff.  The way
I do it is to make use of my thumb to fret the low E string on the G and
F#, then do a painful bend with my pinky along with the F base note.

Transition Riff 1:  Acoustic and electric sound again

E-|first:----3-p2-----------second:---------3---------------------------------|

Repeats twice

Next, play verse 2 times again (Acoustic only)

Verse 2
 guitar 1: (on first 1.5 times through, both acoustic and clean electric,
            then just the acoustic)

Play this a total of 6 times (twice before lyrics and guitar 2 come in)

  guitar 2:  switch to killer distortion

lead in riff:
G-|-(12)\5~~~~----5--7b(9)--7~~~~--(7)/9--9--9--9~~~~-------------------------|

rhythm:
    Am          Who knows    F            Am             ?        F       G
                ^
                Nasty eh? ( you can get away with omitting the A string...)
                          do some creative thumb work again.
                          ( hell to transcribe )
Repeat this twice

Transition 2:

guitar 1: (both guitars now electric distortion - tough on stage! )

    C           D           F           G          Bfl          A     C#   D

guitar 2: (still rockin distortion)

                     ^slow slide  ^this part is real hard to hear
                                   so I may have gotten a little creative

Verse 3 (Actually same pattern as transition 1)

both guitars: (acoustic electric combo)

E-|1st-4th---3-p2-----------fifth:----------3---------------------------------|

repeat 5 times

Verse 3 intro Riff: heavy distortion

D-|--6b(7)-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

After this, play verse 1 pattern on acoustic 3 times with a little crescendo
at the end.
