Tuned down 1/2-step

Comments: There are a couple of slides from the 3rd fret, 4th string notated
here. They should be rammed all the way up the fingerboard. Just go till
there's no place left to go, then head down for the rest of the riff. 


Key:

\    = slide down
b    = bend (whole step)

t    = tap with righthand finger
h    = hammer-on
p    = pull-off
~    = Vibrato

#(#) = Trill
**   = Artificial Harmonic
x    = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\)  = Dive w\bar
