*Ginn plays a pentatonic riff in G 
here and Dez Cadena keeps playing 
rithym riff from
chorus; I usually improvise Ginn's 
part when I play -and he likely does
 too- it but I've
it pretty close to what it is on the
 CD.  The last part with the 
pull-offs is also
and it is done a few times more than
 what I've written.

Prechorus (0:28)
Played three times:

(0:36)
The fourth time is a variation of 
the other three (played three 
times):

----------------------------------
----------------------------------
-----------2-1--------2-1-------2-
--2--2-2-2-----2-1--------1-0-----

The last four notes from the above 
section are not played on the third 
time and the song
directly into the chorus again.  
Then comes another verse with a 
differing lead riff:

Ginn starts with some of those 
bizarre sounds -his trademark- 
before going into the full
I've tabbed there.  That's 
essentially the whole song other 
than the solo, which I will
in a separate file.  Email me with 
any questions.
