Tabbed By: Garth Rhodes
Tuning: Standard

I don't even like The Used, but i tabbed it out anyway coz i already did it for a friend.
This is my improvisation as correct as i can get it, octaves are used quite often and fast 
in this song. This song can also be done on half a step down, but theres really no need, 
because you only hear a dead note once.

s = slide
h = hold/bend
