Ok here's the absolutely 100% right way to play this song. The number of notes that are hit and the timing on the notes is perfectly tabbed 
out to timing  as I hate trying to decipher other people's tabs that aren't accurately timed (and I'm sure we all do).

Guitar 1 = left channel
Guitar 2 = right channel
Guitar 3/lead = both channels

* = let ring
h = hammer-on
/ = slide

Standard tuning

Tempo: 110

Regular spacing (four dashes = quarter note)
