McLusky - Lightsaber Cocksucking Blues

I decided to tab this because the only other one on this site is
so wrong and this song has proven to be most peoples' introduction
to the awesomeness of McLusky due to Rathergood.com's video and
Fight Like Apes' live covers of this song.

Tuning: Standard

After 4 bars of hi hat the guitar crashes in with:

  E5
|------------|
|------------|
|------------|
|-2----------|
|-2----------|
|-0----------|

The verse part that's repeated a few times is:

  A5            E5
|-------------------|
|-------------------|
|-2-2-0-2--2-0------|
|-2-2-0-2--2-0--2---|
|-0-0-0-0--0-0--2---|
|---------------0---|

First Chorus

The sloppier the better! plenty of string noise and ham-fisted
messiness for this part

  E5      G5      D5
|-------------------------|
|-------------------------|
|-----------------7-------|
|-2-------5-------7-------| x2
|-2--1-2--5--1-2--5--1-2--|
|-0-------3---------------|

Second Chorus

After playing the first chorus part twice slam out an E5 and let
it ring for a bar then beat the crap out of it for two bars:
 
  E5           
|-------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|
|-2---------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|-2---------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|-0---------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

Then go play the main chorus riff again followed by one bar
of spazzing out on that E5. It should be noted that the spaz out
part (for want of a better term) is played in groups of three.

  E5
|-------------|
|-------------|
|-------------|
|-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

Repeat the main chorus riff again followed by the one bar spaz out
three times more and on the last time extend the spaz out to two bars.

Then go back into the verse and end with a stab of E5 on the word
'blues'.

Enjoy and please rate!
