Okay im only doing the song, you will have to figure strumming, order
& timing: for yourself, its a hard song but very cool to play 
once you have mastered it. Apologies for the different sizes
some bits are longer than others :) I was having trouble figuring
out the length limits :) If you need any explanations Pm me

Note: Pick harmonics to feedback, then control
with a whammy pedal.
Good Luck


Tuning:Standard.

Intro: Part one (All fretted notes are harmonics in this section)
To get these harmonics restring to a heavier guage...
