Comment or message any ideas or corrections. Please rate my tab. If you've got
problems with the tab, I'd encourage you to contact me with those problems so I
can fix the tab or provide advice for playing. Don't just give me a poor rating
and not give me any feedback. The idea is for us all to work together to create
a perfect finished product. This tab just represents the best I can do. It's
definitely up for peer review.

| & Substitution. Some symbols (like hammer ons and double-digit
fret numbers) are too big to fit inbetween bass-line hits.
" & " is used to fit such symbols into the bass-line with out
having to increase the spacing of the bass-line. The
" & " symbol is used within the boxes and the symbol
it is substituting for is shown out side the box.
