This is one of my favourite r+ songs. It's just awesome. The timing of the
guitar riffs
is a bit tricky butwith some practise you can get them pretty easily.
I have tried to make this tab as complete as possible. I have arranged every
keyboard and
guitar part and even the La La La on the last chorus for guitar. I am
confident that this
tab is at least 90% correct. If it isn't, then feel free to tell me.

Guitar Arrangement:

Verse Riff
This is a simple riff but the timing pattern of it is quite complex.
I've tried to make it as clear as possible here.

D|---2-2-2----0h2-2-2--2-2-2----2-2-2--2--2---3--3---0--0--
   Listen to the record to get it right. The trick here is that when the
riffs
   Start, the 1st beat is not played, the riffs start on beat 2.

not really a solo actually, but it sounds pretty cool when you start messing
around
with the whammy bar while doing that. At the end slide to 17 and use a wah
with a lot of
vibrato.
