(if you have the lead then please post it!)> "Now They'll Sleep", Belly

Changes:Here's the revised edition of my tab for "Now They'll Sleep" by
Belly. I've Figured out the beginning as best as i could with an
acoustic guitar. I'm working on Tom's part with the D chord. The lead
stuff should be easy enought to figure out, but i'm not good at that stuff.
Can someone tell me the effects settings on the song? <especially how to
get that axial crunchy sound in the F G phrase.
