                            How to play it
                            --------------

               |  Verse    |  Chorus   |           |           |
Guitar 1:      |  1 1 1 1  |  2 3 4 4  |  1 1 1 1  |  2 3 4 4  |
Guitar 2:      |           |      5 5  |           |      5 5  |

            Verse    |  Chorus   |      Verse    |  Chorus   |
Guitar 1:   8        |  2 3 4 4  |  1 1 1 1 1 1  |  2 3 4 4  |  4 4
Guitar 2:            |      5 5  |               |      5 5  |  5 6


                                Notes
                                -----

In guitar riffs 2 and 3, the 18^(19) means pick the 18th fret, and
then bend up half a step to the 19th.  Or even just pick the 17th and
bend up a full step.  You could just pick the 19th, but that riff is
so monotonous with all that picking the same note over and over...

Guitar riff 7 is kind of a joke--it's that one note that's held for
the entire verse.  In the studio, the Sisters used a synth with an
organ sound that's not unlike the lead guitar sound.  It's not much
fun to pick that one note continuously for that long, so we used a
synth, too.  Feedback would be a perfect expression of the note if
you're so fortunate as to be able to play loudly enough.

Guitar 2 plays exactly the same thing as the bass, except where riff 5
or 6 is indicated.

Ad lib heavily on guitar riffs 2, 3, and 4.
