=================================
Note: 
This is an awesome song. I haven't been writing tablature very long but I think I'm pretty close here. BUT, there's always room for comments or any changes you think should be made. If so, email me.

Tuning: (low to high) D,A,D,G
I tuned it to Dropped D tuning, but I'm pretty sure Duce tunes to C#. (only the E string is used for this song, so the others don't really matter) Just mess around with it.

Sidenotes:
*1*= I put the numbers there to make it easier for you, but if you got the album, you should be able to tell the order of the riff.
*2*= Riff 4 and Riff 5 are pretty much the same thing, just with a slide on Riff 5. Again, if you lsiten to the album you can tell.
*3*= Riff 6 is just the tail end of Riff 7.
*4*= Riff 3 is just played at a slower pace. Again, listen to the album.

So, here ya go.
