1-I added drums and cello rhythm line.Although I 
prefer to play intro and chorus parts in my own 
way,I should be faithful to Randy's ones so this is 
almost the way my brother,Afshin and I play a duet of 
the song.He plays cello and I play guitar.We have 
drums line from PC. We both considered original 
version,Fort Worth (Texas) '96 live version,S&M 
version,and Apocalyptica version of the song to reach 
this cello rhythm line.It acts as strings (reminding 
apocalyptica and S&M ones),bass guitar (esp. when it's 
pizz.), and distortion guitar (at solo).I think it's cool.
2-The link notes changed into note duration ones 
in order to have a cleaner area with no interference of 
the standard notes specially when printing.
3-I modified some bars:
1,14,15,16,18,21,22,32,41,50,57,58,66,73,74,75,76,7
8,80,81,83,84,86,88,98,107,118,119,120,122,131-163
4-about modification of bars 21-22: I think having 
normal 16th and 8th notes is easier than having dotted 
triolet (3-tuplet) 16th and 8th for an equal timing.isn't it?
5-about modification of bars 131-163 :I added bars 
131-134 and shifted the other bars ahead.although this 
part starts with bar 127 in original version,it is played by 
another guitar.Here that we have one guitar,I think the 
best way is having S&M ver. outro as I've put it 
here.Kirk is responsible for the outro in S&M and he 
plays first part of the intro 4 times as it's come here.
Randy Reiterman:
Whole song ... single guitar intro, chorus, solo, outro ... 
IT'S ALL HERE for one guitar.  This is the way I play it. 
 To many others tab this song and make it sound sad 
... this isn't a sad song.  I play as close as I possibly 
can to the original so this tab is as close as I can get to 
the original for one guitar.  I love it =).  One of the 
greatest songs ever writen!!
