*harm is a harmonic produced py placing the finger halfway between the
third and fourth
frets, and then producing a harmonic in the usual way. Sometimes, on
the record, it works
other times it sounds like a muted open string.

The 'rapid fire' doublestops played on the E and B strings, by guitar
1, are semi-quavers
and for every beat should be counted as 1-e-&-a, 2-e-&-a, etc.
The part played by guitar 2 uses a bottleneck (slide) giving the notes
a more metallic,
earie quality.

TAB Key
b - bend a semitone
r - release previous bend
p - pulloff
s - slide
mb - microtone bend (see record for further details)
mr - microtone release
X - mute with palm of hand
harm - harmonic
~ - hold note
Notes
Guitar 1 plays the most recognisable part of the song (the part which
you hum on your way to work ?),
Guitar 2 plays similar lines to guitar 1 but contains a few weird note
choices and harmonics - giving
the noise effect on the track.
The inter-bar timings of the 2 guitar parts are reasonably accurate,
but check the record for details,
particularly the 2 guitar parts on the chorus where one guitar plays
doublestops and the other slide.
You don't need to be an 'expert blueshound' to play the slide bits,
and if you don't have a slide you
can simulate the effect quite closely using finger slides.
