- The strumming pattern isn't right, so play it any way you think sounds good.
- Over the above, lay these licks...

- This is the basic fast-tempo metal format of the song; various bridges
and things include bars on the 10th, 3rd, 5th and zeroth frets. It would
take up less space if I ommitted those.

James only (many strums.....)
-Again, the strumming pattern isn't perfect. Repeat the intro part and the
next verse. For that 2nd "shot full of diamonds", Billy slaps on a positive
Octaver. Also, add these licks over the 2nd intro (confused yet?)
