INTRO: Violins, but here it is on a guitar

VERSE PART 1: Pretty simple, mostly power chords
      - Palm mute everything until u get to the big F# chord
      - the "x"s are measures, not how many times you play the chord
      - For the second verse, the CD version repeats part 1, but the
        radio/music video version doesn't repeat
      - Also, guitar 2 doesn't play independent from 1 until the
        second verse, after u play the chorus once
