pm --- --- -- - -
This riff comes in before "binding my time..."
B |-0000-01-|
F#|-0000-01-| - followed by percussion sounds
B |-0000-01-|
pm ---- --
"Binding my time until the time is right"

The riff when he starts screaming after "Binding my time..."
B |-1--0-|
F#|-1--0-| - let the chords ring
B |-1--0-|
Then there is that noisefest part with feedback. Most notes resemble the intro
so play around with that. Im sure its a random thing when the band plays it live
(if they do...). It kinda reminds me of Kurt Cobain and his feedback-led solos.
Towards the end ("I want my time.. Id rather die..."
B |-7-|
F#|-7-| - this chord is played with flanger
B |-7-|
"Need Time!" (when Corey goes all psyco!)
B |-00-00-|
F#|-00-00-| - Just that chord
B |-00-00-|
