Tuned down 1/2-step

Comments: Not much to say. Gene progressively builds the line up during
the verses. Safe, riff-based stuff, but man what a song. Previously
tabbed by Dana Kenneth Palmer. No part of that tab has been used in
this one.

\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)

pb = pre-bend
r = release-bend
t = tap with righthand finger
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
~ = Vibrato
* = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
** = Artificial Harmonic
x = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\) = Dive w\bar
(/) = Release w\bar
Tp = Tap w\plectrum
