 *make sure you listen to the recording to get the proper timing down -
 there are some places
 where you don't play the chords... just bass/drum/vocal.

 for the repeating ^ sign, gradually bend the note to the position
 marked (1 = 1 step, 1/2 =v 1/2 step, etc)

 for this part, hold the bend from the last section, and release it
 slowly as this part begins.
 v = lower bend, h = hammer on, p = pull off

 now for the guitar solo thing.  honestly, it's a little too effects
 loaded for me to be able to
 tell exactly what notes he's playing, but i can tell you the scale, so
 improvise your way through
 it!  nothing says lovin' like your own mark on a solo.

 through the solo, and through the remainder of the song, one of the
following two parts is
 played.  at one point, the bass starts playing E (2nd fret, D string),
but the guitar is
 either silent or feeding back during this, so don't worry about it.
