I remember trying to learn this song a couple years ago and having a tough time finding
a tab I liked.  This is jam version of the song, I have played it this way in a couple
different bands now and no one complains about the bass.  So here it is.

Half step: Eb Ab Db Gb
Intro:  theres a palm mute and let ring pattern on the Eb you have to listen to and
workout.  It repeats a bunch of times then on the last one play the bridge

------------------------- --7--5-------------------------------7---5-----------------|
0-0-0--00--0-0-00-0-0-00-0-57---00-0-0--00--0-0-00-0-0-00 0---57---------------------|

0-0-0--00--0-0-00-0-0-0---765--3-0--|  Then straight to the Chorus

Chorus: Repeats 3 x

On the 4th one I like to let the notes ring a little longer

0-0-000-03-33-333-30-----------------43-----|  Then back to the intro

This tab is my first tab and some of the timing is written poorly.  You will have to
workout the rhythm yourself by playing along to the track.  I have never seen it tabbed
like this and if it helps one person, that would be awesome!  So do not be too hypercritical.

If anyone wants further elaboration, I can post a you tube vid and you can see and hear 
the timing.
