Alrighty, in my opinion, best song on the CD (next to Suburbia), and not too 
hard play either.
Happy playing.

Tune down half a step
means play note 8 times

does)

NOTE: I can barely hear bass here, so you can play the chorus just single 
notes, and
what I have above is an octave higher.  Experiment with palm muting and 
stuff like that
and see what you like.  Doesn't really matter, but the octave sounds pretty 
cool, especially
with a flanger.
