RATE PLEASE! mxtabs deleted the original. All I ask is that I know my tab is getting viewed!

Tired of half-way done tabs so going to make it as detailed and correct as possible. I
will try and point all when he adds delay, changes delay, uses wah, and such. Some parts
will be unexplainable, you will have to listen to the recording.
Tuning is drop D.
Key:
pm palm mute
^ bend note
* artificial harmonic
(nh) natural harmonic (touch finger to string without applying pressure above depicted
fret, then pick)
h Hammer On
p Pull Off
~ Hold out note (although you should hold just about all notes, this is reminding you)
() "ghost note" (unless otherwise noted). I use this to depict a note that you might not
have heard or may be hard to hear. A very subtle note.
::TO SET YOUR DELAY CORRECTLY FOR ANY TOOL SONG::
(With a proper delay setting your song can sound many times better)
Play the song up to a point where you can hear the delay effect very well, in "Pu*** (live)'s"
case a good point is 8:21, where the drums have finished and it is playing clean. Adam
tends to set the delay to the beats in the song, which seems right anwyays.
Also, many parts of this song can be played on several different areas of the guitar.
I only show you where I play them, if you find you like it played somewhere else on the guitar,
then use that.
And now on to the tab...
(The timing may be off because I am using winamp)
0:28 repeating open D string comes in permanently (no echo delay) (no volume adjustments)
Keep tones and distortion low for solo and verse
0:44 (Hold notes out)

During the silence here, reach down and set your DD-5 (or other) delay pedal to
normal delay functions (with it matching adam's delay hopefully). Keep the pedal off,
there is no delay in the verse.
Verse 1
1:20 Keep volume and distortion low, there is no delay. HOLD OUT NOTES
