This is the Godsmack song "Awake."  They play it in Drop-C, and I
think that's where they play all their songs.  This is yet another 
"challenging" song from this band.  I'm not sure how they get away
with playing such easy and dumb songs; maybe it's because they're
so catchy.  The only thing I'm leaving out is the solo.  I'm sure you 
can track that down elsewhere.
