TUNING: EADGBd *(TUNE 1st STRING ONE FULL STEP DOWN)*
156bpm
 
Heavy fuzz/distortion and reverb are highly recommended but by no means necessary.
Some slight tremolo action/Glide guitar technique is also recommended if possible -
I find it works best during the instrumental and verses.

(I usually tend to increase the amount of force on the tremolo bar
during the last bar with heavy fuzz to match the recording.)

According to notes kept during the loveless recording sessions this song would be tuned *GDGBd (open G with low E string removed, just like Kieth Richards from the Rolling Stones), other than that looks accurate.
