NOTES:
-The entire song is basically variations of accents and
timing of the main VERSE riff.  The 2nd Ending, chorus,
and REFRAIN parts are mostly guidelines, the bassist
seems to be noodling to some degree.
-During the verse, cut the notes to accent them and
create that jazzy sound, but let certain notes ring
during the refrain.
-If You have any rhythm problems, listen to the track...
tab just doesn't notate rhythm very well.
-An Octave pedal can definitely help get that octave sound
much easier if you prefer not use a pick.
