Tabbed by: Bazzziz

Tuning: Standard


(listen to song for timing)

use Whammy Pedal set one octave down or dive bomb (use pedal for to get
something that sounds ok) for the bending noise

E|00000000--------00000000--------------------------------------------------|

verse (with slight tremolo) i didnt bother putting in the second verse as he
just improvises with some pull offs and hammer ons around a standard E chord
instead of bending G

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---99--99--99--99----------99--99--99--99----------------------------------------|

A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------0--3b-------------------0--3b--------------------------| x 2-|

sometimes he strums the chord or picks the individual strings so feel free to play 
around these to what you think sounds right
