Attention

[Standard Tuning]

Intro [1:01]

Quite fast picking here

Repeat this several time

Then the main riff comes in

Main [1:32] [quite distorted]

E-----------------------------------------------------------------

Repeat this pattern over and over...
Notice how John sometimes hits (accidentally?) the G string, which adds an interesting colour to it...

The second line of the main riff is often thrown in this way, too: [2:11]

G--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0-----------

Fill to the second line: [2:58]

The pickin' is not always clear so just make it up on your own

Cool lick (always at the second line of the main part) [5:50]

e--18-18-18-18-18-18b19-19-19-19r18-18-18-18-18-18-18---------------

It's hard to tab this lick, you just have to bend slowly your strings up and down those two frets while constantly pickin', givin' that "out-of-pitch" effect...

That's basically the song, just improvise a lot on those positions given and make fun out of it (especially the last lick!)

End:

e---0--
B--12--

John used his Jag on this one.
