Title: Bullet the Blue Sky
Album: Fundamental Elements of Southtown



This song is played in drop-d tuning, although it really doesn’t matter
except on the dead strings (played open and palm muted) in the intro. The
whole song is mostly octaves, so it’s pretty easy, and it’s got a fun solo.
Rack up some good distortion, and have fun with it.

Intro:
e-|------------------------|-
B-|------------------------|- Palm mute the dead strings, 
G-|------------10------\---|- then hit the octave once,
D-|---x-x-x-x—x-------\---|- hold, then slide off.
A-|---x-x-x-x--8-------\---|- (repeat 4x)
D-|---x-x-x-x--------------|-

I don’t hear much going on in the verses guitar-wise other than the occasional
variation of the intro or an occasional strum to back up the bass

                                                                              
Chorus:
-|-------------------------------------------------------|-
