                                       ^ This is actually played by a 2nd 
                                       guitar doing the top part of riff
                                       3... but with some practice, it
                                       can sound pretty good with just
                                       one guitar

happiness in slavery:

distorted synth & drum sounds here...

(:32) Main bass riff (I think, someone help me with this):
G------------------------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------------------------
A--------------------------1---------------------------------------------
E--0--1-1-1--4---0--1h2p1-----2------------------------------------------
             ^slide down

E--------------------------
B--------------------------
G--------------------------
D--------------------------
A---3-----4---3------------
E---1-----2---1------------

B------------------------------------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------------------------
A--3--3--3--4--4--5--5--5--6--6--6--7--7--8--8---------------------------
E--1--1--1--2--2--3--3--3--4--4--4--5--5--6--6---------------------------
muted, first time thru pick only E string, the rest pick chords.

then bass line for a couple of chorus: (don't open your eyes...)

(1:52) Guitar riff 3
smoothly:
E-------------------------
B-------------------------
G------------------5^-----<<-micro-bend up 1/2 fret or so to give 
D---3h4p3---3h4p3----4----   the right sound.
A-------------------------
E-------------------------

(3:11) harmonics in the bass riff:

(3:28) back to riff 1.
(3:44) 2nd guitar plays figure 3.

outro:
E-------------------------- 
B-------6------------------ 
G---5---3---6^^5-----------

   (transcribed out by Elissa Feit)

    1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and    1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and  
E---------------------------|--------------------------|
B---------------------------|-----------9--------------|  
G---------------------------|--7-----7-----------------|  
D---9--9--9--10-10-10-10-10-|--X--10-X--X--X--X--X--X--|  
A---7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|
E---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|

The "X" signifies the muting/dampening of the string.

Suggestions: play the 7 on A with your index finger. Play the 9 on D with
your 4th (out of 5) finger. Play the 10 on D with your pinky. Play the 7 on
G with your 3rd finger and leave it there - don't lift it for the remainder
of the measure. Play the 10 on A with the 4th, play the 9 on B also with
the 4th and hold it there to ring out for the rest of the measure.
Keep the E and A string as a steady drone.

    1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and    1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and  
E---------------------------|--------------------------|
B---------------------------|--------------------------|  
G---------------------------|-----------------7--------|  
D---9--9--9--10-10-10-10-10-|--7--7--7--6-----6--------|
A---7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|
E---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|

Play all 4 measures over and over, etc...

Suggestions: same fingering for the third measure as the first.  I
find it easiest to play the 7-7 in the fourth measure with my 3rd and
4th fingers. Then when I hit the 6 on D, I can use my index finger
without lifting my third finger up.  Let the first 6 on D ring for
that extra eighth note.  Let the 7 on G ring for the remainder of the
measure.
