Tabbed by Edd Dawson(all my own work).

You can rip the proverbial piss out of my cruddy guitar tab by
emailing: ma0etd@bath.ac.uk

Guitar Tuning from low to high: CGCFAD
Bass Tuning from low to high: CGCF
(Do dropped-d then all strings down one whole step)

A COUPLE OF NOTES:
Timing isn't exactly accurate - only approximate.
Listen to the song to get it exact. Snot difficult.
I've stuck in some bars where I thought it could be
helpful as far as readability goes.

Where possible I've tried to line up the bass and guitar parts
properly. Couldn't do it all that well sometimes so again, have
a listen to see what I'm getting at.

Even though there are two guitars, you can easily get away with
playing most of the song on just one. It's what I do. This song
also sounds fine if you play it in dropped-d if you can't be
bothered to retune all your strings. It just comes out a little
higher than on the actual track, but so what? :)

Playing order:
INTRO 1 x1
"KY-YOH!"
INTRO 2/CHORUS x2
VERSE x1
INTRO 2/CHORUS x2
VERSE x1
INTRO 2/CHORUS x2
BRIDGE x1
OUTRO x1

This next bit's probably got a lot wrong with it I reckon -
too hard to hear it properly with the effect it's using.
All I can tell is that it's similar to the chorus pattern, so
it's at least something similar to this:

(now with flanger(?)):

After the above has been played by guitar 2, guitar 1 does this:

Guitars then shut up as the bass hits the higher C string loads in roughly
this rythmn:

This next bit comes in over the top of guitar 2 after the riff above
has been played 4 times.

ALL THIS IS **HARMONICS** and NOT power-chords.
(Lie you finger gently across the strings at the frets indicated).

Guitar 1: (now with distortion)
D|---------------------------------
A|---------------------------------
F|---------------------------------
C|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2/3-3-3-3/4-4-4\3- x4 <--This is meant to be a smooth,
G|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2/3-3-3-3/4-4-4\3- gradual slide, and not three
C|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2/3-3-3-3/4-4-4\3- differently defined chords.

And finally guitar 2 does this:

Guitar 2 (chunky distortion)

G|-0-0-00--0--0------
C|-0-0-00--0--0--0-0-
