Before you read this tab please read these four notes:
1: This is how I play Private Idaho, In the studio version
there were overdubs making some parts (Like the intro) Impossible
to play live in the same amount of time and same speed.
2: This song can be played in normal tuning but Ricky Wilson liked
to tune his treble side strings in unison so tune your High E down
to a B if you want more sound and play the same frets as the B string.
(This is optional)
3: * = Stop playing string (Mute it)
Intro (Listen to the song to get the idea and timing)

You can use three string power chords rather than two for the end if you want.
