Legend:	In my notation, a row of tildes (~) means ’wiggle the
tremelo bar’.  ’\’ means slide down and ’/’ means slide up.
The nice tremelo work along with a lot of reverb give this
song most of its atmosphere.

Note:	The intro riff is hard to notate.  Basically, the sequence
on the B string is: pick open string (B), bend tremelo down 1/2 step,
hammer-on 7th fret (F#), release tremelo, pick 7th fret (F#), slide
down to open string.
