Ok so I?m going to be dividing each section into what Mikael and Fredrik each play, listen around to
know when each plays their own part. Be sure to post any suggestions or comments, and don?t forget to rate.
Good luck!
Intro
The song starts with increasing volume, so the first two notes are not heard (but still exist)

Some piano and bass parts come on and theeeen...
Rhythm guitars for solo/outro...
This is a bit complicated to hear, the first bar is what Mikael plays LIVE and maybe on the CD...
but it just doesn?t sound that great on the latter, so I like to play the second bar instead, if you play
it as a power chord it also works.
These sections are played until the song fades out,the exception being that when live, both Mikael and
Fredrik play their parts from the outro and no rhythm guitar remains.
