Collective Soul -- "Why Pt. 2"

Very awesome song.  I figured this out from listening to it on the radio, 
so I hope everything's right.  If the solo doesn't sound right...try octaves, 
they use 'em a lot in this song.  Lots'a wah, too.

Main Riff:
Heavy distortion
|----------------|

|--6-6-6--6-6-6--|
|--6-6-6--6-6-6--|
|--4-4-4--4-4-4--|
|----------------|

Chorus:
Lead guitar -- wah
Rythm guitar -- distortion
|--------------|
|--------------|
|--3-----6--6--|
|--3--4--6--6--|
|--1--4--4--3--|
|-----2--------|

Solo:
Heavy wah & distortion
(I know this first part is off, but I'm not really sure what Ross plays
 -- wah is hard to tab.  =P  Anyhow...feel free to play this pretty much 
however you want...I usually improvise on this.  Rythm guitar plays the chorus riff.)
