Cage The Elephant – Ain’t No Rest (for the wicked)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Open G, played with a slide.

Hi! Now, I've noticed that all the other tabs are either innacurate, 
or have missed out some bits, so I have figured out the rhythm 
guitar (which is in brackets), and added other bits that weren't
included in other tabs.

Play with a slide, best on your ring finger: that way you can use your
index and middle for playing the other guitar. For the other guitar, 
play close to the bridge to achieve the right sound.

Above: now, the lick there is fast: for the "18 17" bit, angle the slide so
it goes over both frets. Add a bit of vibrato to each note, but don’t
overdo it.

You cant really hear this bit: it is hard to hear, but listen closely, it is there.
