-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:Shaka_SY

Tuning: CGDGCD


This is Thurston's part.
James part is similar save for the solo.

As always, listen to the record for the struming patern :


Part 1
D MajorD|-0-9p7p0-----------------------0-9p7p0-------------------------------9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|
C majorC|-0-0-0-0-7----7--7--7--7-7-7-7-0-0-0-0-7--7----------------------7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
G+G|---------0----0--0--0--0-0-0-0---------0--0-9-7-0------------7-9-0-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|

Part 2
D MajorD|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
C majorC|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
G+G|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
D MajorD|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
G+G|-7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|

T during James' solo
D MajorD|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C majorC|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G+G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|-7-7-7-7-7-7-X-X-X-X-7-7-7-7-7-7-X-X-X-X-8-8-8-8-8-8-X-X-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-|
G+G|-7-7-7-7-7-7-X-X-X-X-7-7-7-7-7-7-X-X-X-X-8-8-8-8-8-8-X-X-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-|
C majorC|-7-7-7-7-7-7-X-X-X-X-7-7-7-7-7-7-X-X-X-X-8-8-8-8-8-8-X-X-X-X-8-8-8-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-|


After the solo, play around these (live : James uses the whamy bar, Thurston goes into freak out mode)
D MajorD|-------3-----------3-----------3-----------3---
C majorC|-------2-----------2-----------2-----------2---
G+G|-0-----0-----1-----0-----0-----0-----1-----0---
D MajorD|-0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0---
G+G|-0-----------0-----------0-----------0---------
C majorC|-----------------------------------------------


Then back to Part 1 twice:
D MajorD|-0-9p7p0-----------------------0-9p7p0-------------------------------9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|
C majorC|-0-0-0-0-7----7--7--7--7-7-7-7-0-0-0-0-7--7----------------------7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
G+G|---------0----0--0--0--0-0-0-0---------0--0-9-7-0------------7-9-0-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|
D MajorD|---------0----0--0--0--0-0-0-0---------0--0-0-0-0--------7-9-0-0---0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
G+G|---------0----0--0--0--0-0-0-0---------0--0----------7-9-0-0------------------------------------|
C majorC|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Play the end of it 4 times:
D MajorD|-----------------9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|
C majorC|-------------7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
G+G|---------7-9-0-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|
D MajorD|-----7-9-0-0---0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
G+G|-7-9-0-0------------------------------------|
C majorC|--------------------------------------------|


Hold the last chord for a while then tremolo pick these:
D MajorD|---------------7-
C majorC|-----------7-----
G+G|-------7-----7---
D MajorD|---7-----7-------
G+G|-----7-----------
C majorC|-7--------------- x4

D MajorD|----------------------19-
C majorC|----------------19-------
G+G|----------19-------19----
D MajorD|----19-------19----------
G+G|-------19----------------
C majorC|-19---------------------- x4

for these two parts above, let some open strings ring while struming furiously


Then go back to Part 2:
D MajorD|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
C majorC|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
G+G|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
D MajorD|---------------------------------------------------------8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
G+G|-7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
C majorC|-7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--7-7-7-10-3-3--8--8--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|

Then noise!

Meanwhile, James holds the 8th fret chord for a while and ends on 7th fret (I think)
So if you're not going to try to emulate Thurston, you can still do something like this :
D MajorD|-8-----------
C majorC|-8-----------
G+G|-8-----------
D MajorD|-8-----------
G+G|-8-----7\\\\\
C majorC|-8-----7\\\\\
