Hello Ultimate-Guitar !
I hope you find this tab useful. I dont think no one has acctually wtritten this tab
(or i think correctly ;)). So this is what i figured out by ear, and to me, as a drummer
and bassist, i think this tab is right. Please rate :)!

Tuning: Drop D (if you ont tune down it sounds terrible !!)
