okay that is the riff, I was shown this by the guitarist for runt, a band that practices
with shroom and opens up for them alot in cleveland, so that is the riff, the following
part i just kinda played by ear,
 
PLAY THE MAIN RIFF 3 or 4 TIMES, THEN BEFORE JEFF HATRIX SCREAMS-AHHHHHH, AND THE DOUBLE BASS
KICKS IN YOU'LL HEAR A HARMONIC
N.H. for this part, just slide up from five
 
low e---5-4-3-2-1
 
When you've done this, then the double bass kicks in and j mann starts with
"set me free let me be what i am why can't you see? etc..."
Then keep playing the main riff through the song, i'm not sure what the
chords are for one j man goes "THIS LIFE'S A FIGHT FOR FULFILLMENT INSIDE..."
but that is the song, enjoy
