Comments: Unlike most people say, this is NOT the
easiest song on earth mainly because of the difficult
timing.
I've seen MANY versions of this song and after
some research I've come up to a hopefully accurate
one.
Keep in mind that the song can be played in various
positions. The power chords for example can be played
either on the E and A string or on the A and D string
Additionally, there are two versions of the main riff
to choose from: RiffA1 and RiffA2. Riff A1 has difficult
timing.
Keep in mind that Riff B, which is a variation of Riff A1 or
Riff A2 is played along with the vocals.
Notice, that some eighths might not sound like eighths, one
of them might last longer than the other etc...Just listen to
the song carefully and I'm sure you'll get it.
