TOOL - "ticks and leeches3" Tablature

"Ticks and Leeches" by Tool from the Lateralus album
Tabbed by Alec LaLonde (www.angelfire.com/ny4/cela)

A really sweet song from a kickass band.
Tool doesn't follow the standard rock song format (which makes them good)
so riffs will be called riff 1, riff 2, etc.
Play along with CD at first to get the feel...
Dropped D tuning

h=hammer on
p=pick off
*=palm mute
