They aren't too hard. Intro (Orlando) This is quite gently strummed and palm muted but really fast e|------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-16----------------| D|---17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17----------------| A|---17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17----------------| E|---15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15----------------| (Felix) e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---19-/-16--16-----------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------(Let That last octave ring)--------------------------| A|---17-/-14--14-----------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| Then… (Orlando) Still palm muted (This might go on through the whole song.
