One guitar, i prefer using the one doing the harmonic riff, plays this at the "LAST VACATION WAS THE SAME" - This is all picked at a certain tempo and a few slides in there with delay etc:- The "7" is played first, the "4" the second time and repeat:- e|-------------------------------|-----| B|-------------------------------|-----| G|-17~-/-19~\--10~-/-14~-\-5-/-7-|-\-4-| D|-------------------------------|-----| A|-------------------------------|-----| E|-------------------------------|-----| And the other guitar plays the one note at the same tempo for a bit and then throws in a the "17"s and "15"s which are picked fairly quick etc:- e|----|----------------| B|----|-17-17-17-17-15-| G|-14-|----------------| D|----|----------------| A|----|----------------| E|----|----------------| On the tab you've done the "13" on the B string, in which i think it could be on the "17" on the G, but i suppose thats our own ways of playing (its just i play the "17" so i'm positioned into doing the solo). I don't know about the bit just before this solo but there you go, just listen to recording several times and you'll get it, its quite easy to pick up. Great tab though! it is definately correct :)

For the verse, one guitar is doing the harmonic riff, and the other guitar is just tapping back and forth between the 12th fret harmonics on the G string and B string, like this: e|---------------------------------------- B|------12+---------------12+------------- G|---12+-------12+~----12+------12+~------ D|---------------------------------------- A|---------------------------------------- E|---------------------------------------- The chorus (DIS-A-PE-AH!) is just them hitting harmonics on the b string and e string, I like to just do eighth notes between the two, starting on the high e. Like this: e|--12+-----12+-----12+-----12+----------- B|------12+-----12+-----12+-----12+------- G|---------------------------------------- etc D|---------------------------------------- A|---------------------------------------- E|---------------------------------------- I don't have the solo tabbed out yet though, sorry. -Aaron
