S = snare, T = mounted tom, F = floor tom, H = hi-hat, C = crash, B = bass drum

Snare notation: o = quieter, > = louder (accented)

Song has a triplet feel.

Intro:
S|oooooooooooo|oo----------|
T|------------|--oooooo----|
F|------------|--------oooo|

Main pattern:
H|x-x-x-x-x-x-|
S|-o->-o-o->-o|
B|o-o---o-o---|

Hits ("spell out all your thoughts"):
C|x--x--x-----|
S|---------o--|
B|o--o--o--o--|

Bridge ("everyone has got an x in the gut"):
C|x--x--x--x--|
S|o--o--o--o--|
B|o--o--o--o--|

Ending of bridge ("don't look at me like that"):
C|x----x------|x----x------|
S|---o----oo-o|--------oo-o|
T|------------|--o---------|
F|------------|---o--------|
B|o-o--o------|x----o------|

Fills are mostly streams of triplets, creatively orchestrated.
