b=bend ?do not bend it with your finger though, apply pressure to the bridge or whammy-bar,
so
that the note is only bent slightly-much of the first part of the song is played this way (listen to
the
record to pick it up) as are many other modest mouse riffs; i.e., this indicative of Issac Brock?s
?style.?

m=mute?but pretty much all of this is muted except the notes on the ?b? string. This is
the only
part that I am not too sure about, but it sounds about right, anyways?just listen to the
record to
get the rhythm and to figure out when and when not to mute the strings?
SLOW PART:

**very important** these notes are all harmonics!! If you don?t know what harmonics means,
listen
to the record, and if you still don?t get it, ask someone who knows how to play guitar?also on
?3b?
play this note right on the metal part of the fret that separates the 3rd and 4th fret, does that
make
sense? Also, on that same note, bend it by pulling up on the bridge of your guitar, i.e.
pressing down
your whammy bar.
?Here?s the man with teeth like??
Just play ?SLOW PART? again.
Then it goes into this?
FAST PART #1: (Take ?m all for the long ride?)

E-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
play this for awhile-listen to the record-then go back into FAST PART #2(but only play it
once)?then it goes back into the
?slow part?of the song again, and I?ve tabbed out everything for that already, so I trust that you can
figure out the pattern yourself
?then it goes back in to the fast part of the song again, which you can also figure out, then it ends
on this:
OUTRO PART 1:

^^^^^^^^^^^^=bend this note up and down with your bridge or whammy-bar.
Play this several times-I?m not sure how many.
