This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

-This TAB file is all my own work-

This is the second version of the TAB. In the first one I put down a few

wrong numbers. It was nothing that you couldn't have figured out for

yourselves, but I thought that I should correct it any way.

This is a really cool song, so I thought I should put it up. I'll make it

quick and just put up the basic stuff, as I think that a lot of the noises

in this song are electronic, and not played on guitar.

Note: Make sure you tune the sixth string down to D. Otherwise this will

sound really bad.
