Pre-chorus/post chorus/other � it follows the rhythm of the first vocal part
where Maynard says �wear the grudge like a crown of negativity etc��

bar. Listen for when to emphasize.
G|---------------------------|
D|*-------------------------*|
A|*--------------------3h5--*|
D|---0--0-0-2-0---2-3--------|
After that comes this part, which appears later, as with the rest, listen
for the correct timing. This continues with variations all the way to the
little bass interlude.

A|*------------------------------------------------*|
D|--------------------------------------------------|

After the screaming � check the timing

A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
The guitar wails for a little bit and the bass doesn�t play
Then there�s a really messed up sounding riff
G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---0-0-1p0--0-0h1p0-0-0h1p0-0-----------------3--3-3-3�3h5p3-1--|
A|-------------------------------3--3-3-3--3-3--------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---0--0-0-0h1p0--0-0-0h1p0--0-0-0h1p0---3-3-3-3-3-3h5p3---1---|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------|
After that goes a couple of times the drums blast you away with sporadic
time changes, fills and bass drum hits to throw you off, play this and
ignore it.
G|------------------------------------------------|
D|---0--0-0h1p0--0--0h1p0-0--0-0h1p0-0�0--0h1p0---|
A|------------------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------|
Then finally finish big with this

D|---0h1p0-0---0h1p0-0---0h1p0-0---0h1p0-0---0---|
A|-------------------------------------------5---|
D|---0h1p0-0---0h1p0-0---0h1p0-0---0h1p0-0---0---|
