I don't have the record so I can't do the solo, so if
you know it or have, please post it. I don't know if
this is even right, but at least I tried.

This is the key:
Pm.. = Palm mute
~~~~ = Bend up and down rapidly or use your tremelo
**** = Play hard, and loud!!! :-) yea
There are two guitars. Guitar one is standard open tuning,
and guitar two is tuned down a half step.
GUITAR ONE (Lead):
Intro riff (played 15 & 1/4 times): Bend all notes to get good
sound. These are just simple octave bends.
e-------------------
B----10--5--10--15--
G----12--7--12--17--
D-------------------
A-------------------
E-------------------
VERSE: Just get a lot of feedback.
Then at the end of every other time the verse riff is played it
goes: (not quite sure about) Gradually bent more and more...
*************
e--6-6-6-6-6-6-6
B--6-6-6-6-6-6-6

worry i'm working on it.
END: BENDS!!!! WOOHOO!!! This is pretty fun. :-) Play this 5
times then end on the 15th fret and don't even screw with the
wah part after it. hehe :-)

song since i'm to lazy to count it and to re-type it.
hehe :-)
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 SPONGE 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.
