It'd be hard to put it all, but ill put a few parts of it that are cool...
Intro:
A augmentedA string: -0-3-7-12-7-3- (four x) -0-5-9-12-9-5- (four x)
- play the indicated patterns tapping on the A augmentedA string: use the 1st
and 4th fingers for the notes on frets 3 & 7 and 5 & 9 and tap the
note on the 12th fret with the right hand finger....
Play same exact pattern as before on the 
D MajorD string but end with the tapped note
(youll have to listen to it to get the jist...)
G+G str: -0-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9-5- (two times but
end with the last tapped note --------------------^
- again, tap the notes on the 12th fret..
high 
E MajorE -12-7-12-8-7-12-5-
B: -12-8-7-5-
G: -12-8-7-5-
D: -12-8-7-5-
A: -12-8-7-5-
this lick is a fretboard pattern that is the same on each string down the
neck.. tap the notes on the 12th fret and pull off the rest.. work your way
from the high E MajorE string down to the A augmentedA string..

listen to it for tempo... at each f# played on the low E MajorE string, play it in
eighth notes until the next chord.... the \ denotes a slide.... this carries
you into the main theme to the song which is based on the A augmentedA chord .....dont
have time to put it in but see if u can figure it out... it uses pulloffs
at the 5th fret of G+G str first time and pull offs from 3rd fret to open on the
A augmentedA str when it kicks in.... have fun.. Rob

===========================
Key:
+ = tapped note
X\ = pick slide
x = hit string for percussive noise
^ = hammer/pull
/ = slide
~ = vibrato
w~ = whammy vibrato
= natural harmonic
/// = high-speed picking

Intro:
(I've deliberately left out hammer/pull notation because they are too
obtrusive in such numbers. I've given an example of what to do)
