*make sure you listen to the recording to get the proper timing down - 
there are some places 
where you don't play the chords... just bass/drum/vocal.

for the repeating ^ sign, gradually bend the note to the position 
marked (1 = 1 step, 1/2 =v 1/2 step, etc)

for this part, hold the bend from the last section, and release it 
slowly as this part begins.
v = lower bend, h = hammer on, p = pull off

now for the guitar solo thing.  honestly, it's a little too effects 
loaded for me to be able to
tell exactly what notes he's playing, but i can tell you the scale, so 
improvise your way through
it!  nothing says lovin' like your own mark on a solo.

through the solo, and through the remainder of the song, one of the following two parts is 
played.  at one point, the bass starts playing E (2nd fret, D string), but the guitar is
either silent or feeding back during this, so don't worry about it.
