(With Whammy and Delay)

B|---------12----------------15---------------14-----------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-9---------------12---------------11---------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(The notes with the * on top are what you'd play if you don't have a whammy, otherwise
play the same note before that but use the octave up function on the Whammy.)
[Distorted lick 1]
(mostly in the background)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(this lick is used in some of the 'Chorus' parts ("And it's calling me closer") Uses a
of reverb/delay to make it sound more ambient.)
[Distorted Lick 2]
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------12---------12---------15----------15----------14----------14--------|
G|----11----11---11---11----14----14----14----14----14----14----14----14-----|
D|--9----------9----------12----------12----------11----------11-------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(Again used on some of the "And it's Calling me Closer" sections. Again with a fair use
reverb.)
(When the song picks up a bit there's a distorted section of just the main chords of B, D
A with the 'Main' lick playing under it.)

the first part is actually done on the bass with a whammy pedal, not the guitar

for clarification i think the effects order is Delay --> whammy

it's a pedal...on a bass not a guitar. still sounds good, though.
