here is yet another tune i figured out for your listening pleasure...
the main riff is cool, i didn't think i'd be able to figure it out, but i
managed to get it and i think it's exactly what's played on the cd.
aren't you proud of me?

        looking for something attractive to say (not sure of the lyrics)

repeat

the weird part that goes "check out the thinning hair..."
has lots of layered guitars, so you can play single notes or use the crds
shown above.  i won't tab that part cuz i don't remember how it goes, but
it's pretty simple, now that you've got all the pieces in front of you!
