O.K.!  If you own the CD, you know this is a cool song, and
that it probably wasn't too easy to tab out.  Here's my version.

~ means to strum extra fast (listen to the CD to
see what I mean)

Intro:
For the intro, I suggest either finger-picking this or using the thinnest
pick you can find.
E----------------------1----------0~-3-1-0--1-0-1--
B-----1~-4-3-1-0~---3~---4-3-4~--------------------
G-0~~-------------0-------------0------------------
D--------------------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------

E-1~-4-3-1-3~~--
B---------------
G---------------
D---------------
A---------------
E---------------

Then play this 3x:
The Fm Riff:
E-1~-4-3-1-
B----------
G----------

Then:
E-1~-4-3-1-------------
B----------4-3-1-3-4-1-
G----------------------
Then Fm Riff 3x.
Next:
E-3-3s4-1---------------------------------------------
B---------4-3---------------1~-4~-1-0-0-1-3-1---------
G---------------------------------------------1~-3-0~-
D-------------6s3-5--6s3-5----------------------------
A-----------------------------------------------------
E-----------------------------------------------------
