Help! I want to add an artist/song, but I don't know how
Are we missing a song you want? Request it!
Originally tabbed by Arian Hojat
Serious corrections made by Michael Hall (particularly the solo)
This intro riff repeats itself through the song and starts it off after the clapping castinet things
down up up up up down up up up up down up up up up down up up up up
Am G F E
Then breaks into flamenco style fast! play at your own speed, it sounds decent played at half their speed.
Note this is just based off what i hear, they might have added some harder licks.
The solo is tabbed as closely as possible below. It's played extremely fast. I've indicated a
few time points where it was convenient. Even though I used a program known as "CD Looper" to slow
down and loop over parts of the track to get it right, its possible that some notes were missed in
the first 4 seconds (from 0:22 to 0:26). Listen to the CD/MP3 for exact timing.
