Album: Minutes to midnight (2007)
 
Tuning:
 
DADGBe (Drop D)

This is actually a pretty cool riff Brad has come up with.
Although I got this one probably not a hundred percent right,my tab comes pretty close to what Brad plays on 
the
studio version. The strumming pattern is quite different from the one played live. For rhythm and 
repetations,
 feel free to check out my video:

For the main riff you basically need these 2 parts, you only have to look out for when which was part is 
played.

At the end of the bridge the following is played (watch out for the rhythm and breakes!):

Outro (the main riff and chorus are played again)
 
 
At the end a kind of solo kicks in, played with octaves. You play each octave four times.
