 * Do NOT try to play this one without a decent whammy bar - I had to retune
   completely last night about 6 times... There are long gaps all the way
   through this which are difficult to notate in tab... as usual, listen to
   the recording. The double stops near the end I am unsure about which strings
   they are on, but considering the Bass note (with the thumb) it seems to be
   the  best way to play it.
