Kinetic Tab

Ok, so this song isn't exactly made for guitar.  In fact, the main riff is made by 
vocals backwards.  But I thought I'd have a go anyway :)

The melody itself is unbelievably easy to play, but the strange drum rhythm can really 
you off.

The main bit of the song is just those two riffs played over and over again, with 
volume and other strange synth noises played on top.

And that's pretty much the whole song, but there are some other cool little riffs you 
play:

When Thom sings 'Better keep moving' for the third time, a fairly quiet ambient synth 
plays a couple of times:

|-----------------------------|
|-----------------------------|
|--12-13------------13--------|
|--------10--13-10-----10-13--|
|-----------------------------|
|-----------------------------|

At the end, when the song is slowly winding down, another synth part plays (this one's 
3/4 timing):
