Legend:

Tuning: Drop D (E B G D A D)
Quick Note: Because their are two guitarist's in The Darkness (Justin & Dan) it can be hard for one person to play, but I've done my best to make sound as though your playing both at the same time. PS: This tab may look complicated, but if you read all the tab and instrutions you'll find it's simple.
