The solo is played on the e,B,G strings at around about the 12th fret down to
the 9th? It's a bit haphazard, and difficult to follow, but using the
following fingering you should be able to come up with something similar...
E A D G B e

1 1 1 9th fr.

2 -| lift/press these fingers at
----------- | the appropriate points to get
3 -|------------- a reasonable version of the solo.
----------- | a little futher into the solo, slide
4 -| about 4 frets up un the neck (12) - I think!
----------- If anyone has a more accurate tab than this, let
me know!

The song proceeds verse/chorus etc.
The end part (best bit IMHO) is :

That shrieking solo in the middle of the song goes something like this:

Correction are, of course, welcome.
I have transcribed most of Gentlemen. But i havent print it down (yet).
Is anybody interesed? If so e-mail me and I'll write it down.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official AFGHAN WHIGS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
