But here is my interpretation of one way to play it, using a live video of a performance of the song as my semi-source for my tab. Take it as a simple guide, not an exact science. Some other points to know: 1. It starts off quite faint 2. Keep your slide on your pinky 3. This is a monsterous beast, best of luck to everyone and take your time * ***Intro with slide*** (medium light distortion with flange and delay) 0:05

(bkrogers717@msn.com). Thanks man. Great stuff. The solo hasn't changed much, except for the position, which is how Adam actually plays it. This part can only be played the way Adam plays it by using a guitar with a fixed bridge setup like a Les Paul. The string is actually plucked between the bridge and the stop tail piece.Try it, you'll be astounded.
