Tuning: C G Eb Bb F C (standard QOTSA tuning)

This song is from their first album, one of the best in my opinion :) I would
like to say this one is 100% correct, i've heard and seen them live enough times
to get it down right. Drop me a line if you feel otherwise.

Intro/verse:

This riff is played through out the song, even during the solo.

If it gets you down, well then i'll take it....

When they play it live they sometimes switch between the one above and this one. Only one small change.
