i worked most of this out which im proud of coz slide guitar is hard 2 teach ur self
jacks kay hollowbody is tuned to A which can also be tuned 2 G for all u accoustic players
this is the balckpool lights version as there r many diferent verions of it

intro-this took me ages 2 work out:
play with slide

|--3/2-0-3/5-3-0-3-0-3/5-3\2-0-3\2-0--------------------|

|-12~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~----------------------|
|-12~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~----------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|

then the louder fast bit comes in with meg hitting the symbol

|----12\3-0-2/3---------------------------------------------------------|
|----12\3-0-2/3-----8\2-0------3----8\2-0-3-3/5-3--0-------3------------|continued

|--/12---------15/--13---------------------------------------|
|--/12---------15/------12-----------------------------------|
|--------------------------12--------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|

this bit i sort of made up:
|---/5\---------------------------5-------------------------------|
|---/5\-------3---------5\3-0-3/5------5\2-0-------3--------------|
|---/5\-----\3-----------------------------------/3-0----3--------|
|-----------------------------------------------------/3----------|
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

|-3\2-0-3\2-0-----15\14---------------12~~~~~~~~~~~~~--------------|
|-3\2-0-3\2-0-----15\---13-----------------------------------------|
|-3\2-0-3\2-0-----15\-------12--11/12------------------------------|
|-----------0------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------0------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|

im dont have a clue how he does that amazingly fast bit so i made upmy own bit again:

|--/7----------------------------------/5-----------------0------|
|--/7---0--0-3-0-3-0--3/5--0-3-0-3-5---/5---3-2-0----3/---0------|
|--/7----------------------------------/5---3-2-0----3/---0------|
|--/7----------------------------------/5---3-2-0----3/---0------|
|---------------------------------------------------------0------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------|

then it goes 2 the riff

|------------------------------------------------|
|------------3-0-3-3-3-3-3-----------------------|
|------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-----------------------|
|------------------------------------------------|
|--0-----0---------------------------------------|
|-----3b-----------------------------------------|
