I've tried to notate the strumming pattern that i use dunno if it'll be of any help but its there V - downstroke ^ - Upstroke

D|---1515---1515---1515---1515---1515-| they are 11's not ones!!
A|-6-1515-7-1515---1515---1515---1515-| 
E|---------------7------6------5------|

the bit after that is upto you i suppose just right hand tap from the 15th frets and go up and down the neck as far as it sounds right and come back to the 15th

for example
G|------------------------------------|
D|-1111111212131315151616141413131111-|
A|-1111111212131315151616141413131111-|
E|------------------------------------|

shouldn't take too long to get it sounding right right well thats all you need to play the song i know there are some other little riffs and weird slides that les does but i'm still figuring them out ************************************ | h Hammer-on | p Pull-off | ~ Vibrato | x Dead note | s Slap ************************************
