=========================================
This is the labor of a late night of beer drinking and guitar playing.
Remember, the thing about 3EB is their excellent tone, so do your best
to try to match some of the cleans and the crunches from the album for
the best possible results. There are multiple axes at work here, but
it is possible to play this song in its entirety with a lone guitar.
Key:
h - hammer-on
p - pull-off
/ - slide
~ - tremolo
b - bend
nh - natural harmonic
T - fret using thumb
] o
] o - repeat

Some feedback in the beginning, then this little harmonic thing:
