Chorus 
Play these chords with your 1st finger barred across the fret,and  
lightly hit the G + B strings while strumming 
B			  G 
What i wanna know, is will i get death row? 
B		  	   F	 
Or is there a second solution 
B                 A# A    G 
What i wanna say, is will i die today? 
F		  *				          
Or will i get  second solution 
 
* is where the guitar stops playing 
 
Then the intro is played again, followed by the verse and chorus, then  
Chris plays the B chord 4 times followed by the last line verse riff  
(minus the last F chord), and then he goes into a solo which I can't  
play (although I haven't made much of an attempt at it).  The pre-verse  
riff is played 4 times, before the 1st verse and chorus is repeated. 
 
Then comes the quiet part, which is just arpeggioed power chords (I think): 
 B	C  F 
----------- 
----------- 
---4--5---- played 4 times, then strum the same pattern quickly  
--4---5-4--  4 times. 
-2---3--4-- 
-------2---

-4-4-4-4--5-5-4-4-    
-2-2-2-2--3-3-4-4- 
--------------2-2- 
Outro:
