So if you didn't know, this song was written by Jonathan Davis during his JDevil tour. The way he played it was with 2 different tunings with 6-string guitars. The Intro, verse and Pre-Chorus were all done in Standard tuning. The chorus and bridge were done in Drop D. So what I've done is tabbed out the song both in 2 Variations for a 7-String. I did parts in B and parts in A, but keep in mind that the entire song can be played solely in B, but not in A (Riff 4 and 5 really prevent that) if you see any riffs without any 2nd variation, that means it really isn't that possible to play it successfully in A-Standard.
