This is a great song by a great band off one of the 
greatest albums ever. It’s not too hard to figure out,
if my awesome precisely timed tab doesn’t give you the
right idea on how to play it, then listen to the song while
reading the tab, and you definitely should get it.

Verse x1 (let last note ring)


So that’s it. There are different ways to play it, like 
playing the verse on the A string (so that the starting
fret is the 7th). This will give you a different tone, but I
think the way I tabbed it out is the accurate tone to what
Greg plays, but if you think not, play it however you want.
