Guitar 1 slow part is missing. If someone can figure it out, please let me know.
It's not the very exact timing, but it seems ok.
Tune down Half Step (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb)
b = full bend = slide down ah = artificial x = muffled string
h = hammer-on / = slide up harmonic
p = pull-off M = palm mute ~ = hold note
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Main Riff (Part A) w/heavy distortion

(Part B)
|---------------------------------------| First time guitar 2 plays till the
|---------------------------------------| first D chord of Part A and whole Part B.
|---------------------------------------|
|-----------------------8-10------------| Second time guitar 2 doubles guitar 1 (Part A)
|-7-7---------5-7-7-----8-10------------| playing a D chord and the variation of part A,
|-5-5-555-6-5-3-5-5-555-6--8------------| then plays part C.
MMM M M M MMM
By the way, sometimes guitar 1 modifies Part B
(Variation) without palm muting.

LYRICS:
Cowardice, this chain of events
Gather and plot the ensnaring of me
Gone now you're the sense of lust
Is there a cost for the reckless excess?
Taken in you're the growth and trust
Retalitory strike at the weakest spot
Raked away the remains of my fall
That laid scattered cross plains of regret
Humble in defence of the wicked
Rundown, naked and blind
Merciless, the onslaught of demands
Get in line for the numbing
I wonīt make a stand
Redeemer you're the slavery
Reconcile with the carefree and content
Ensnarer, caretaker
Lead not these the frail into battle again
Crossing out the ramblings of others
Tired of the same old refrain
Knowing this will all be corrected
Torn down, wasted and lost
I canīt take it anymore īcause I am Rundown
Canīt take it anymore īcause this is wrong
Tired and Rundown,
Tired and Rundown.
Spat it out
The foolish lines you fed
It holds a place in the civilized mind
Forcefed, the turn of our venturesome quest
Being Rundown as we seek
Rundown
The day this was lost
All that you see
All thatīll be
Rundown
