Tabbed by Fred Lidskog <swede@email.unc.edu>

Tab KEY:

h = hammer on

p = pull of

s = slide (a quick slide)

\ = a slower slide (sounds like 2 separate notes w/ a slide in between)

b = bend (7b8 means bend the string at the 7th fret to make approximately

the note the string would make if played at the 8th fret with no bend)

r = release bend

T = (listed above tab) tap fret with index finger of right hand and pull

off

~ = hold and slightly vibrate note

> = slide down the neck an unspecified amount

Riff 1: (Acoustic)

NOTE: the finger-tapping part here is tabbed approximately, as I'd find it

impossible to hear every single note, without having one of those devices

that can slow the music down. I have the same tapping pattern repeating,

while in the song it actually varies slightly.
