This song is great to play on guitar, but it's really hard to figure out how the guitarist tunes his guitar for it, as 
the song changes key near the end from E (for the solo) to C# (the heavy part). The best way around this I found is just to 
drop your guitar to drop C tuning, like you would for Collision. This probably isn't the way Jon Hudson played it but it 
works anyhow.

Key:
 = slide down
/ = slide up
~ = hold note
bu = bend up
bd = bend down (or release from bend up)
pm = palm mute

Solo

(Every note is basically slid from one to the other and the timings are quite tricky to tab, so just follow the notes & 
listen to the song to get it.)
