I would like to start by saying this is my favorite song off of my favorite album by Sevendust.
Its deff a looney song (the way its played), but the result was some weird/beautiful chords.
I also have to thank Darren Davis for his video on YouTube. The way we play the song
different
in some aspect, and i tabbed it out my way, but if it wasnt for him, i couldnt have
out
the proper tuning, and such.
Tuning:
Bb F Bb Eb Ab Db
A variant drop Bb tuning, with the last 2 strings matched with the 5th notes instead of
4th than 5th note.

Continously bend the 4's on the F string, and start to release the bend (but dont)
right before you hit the 4 on the Bb string. Palm mute the chords

Bend the 10 and slide it to 13 give it a slight vibrato
And on that note, thats the whole Sevendust- Burn.
Ill leave you to figure out the exact order because its not difficult :)
