Drop D

note: there are 2 ways of playing the intro and the propper one involves 2 guitars 
(or one ****ing good one like tom morrelo) it is the same as the one that i have tabed except it 
involves tremelo picking the Dstring and bending the note from 6 to 7. if you play with another 
guitarist then you can do that and they can do the chords.
