this is one of the best songs EVER and judging by todays music it'l keep firmly where it
to basshunter...you give music a bad name!

Key
____
h - hammer on
p - pull of
/ - slide
v - vibrato
b - bend note
b Full - bend note a full tone (so it sounds two frets higher)
r - release bend
. - mute note slightly
x - very muted note

INTRO

there's not a single correct tab for this bit yet!
i dont think he pulls of to these notes but it sounds much better

RIFF 1

this bit here's very similar to matiusus tab i just split it up a bit so it was easier
work out and i added the fact that it was muted, i also corrected the ending.

SOLO

this first note goes for a while, it bends down but if you don't have a whammy bar (like
you have to bend it loads then slowly straighten it after its been picked. btw this is
the video version (i think there different)

E|-------------------------------------------|

the fast (awesome) (hard) bit, basicly you just tap 8h11p8h11p8...with your left hand
your normal) and slide your pick downwards from about 19th to 12th fret at an increesing speed...
it goes something like this i play it slightly differently every time...

bend these massively...

i think this bit is slighly muted, and it speeds up as it gets higher...
the hammer on and pull offs are all optional, i prefere to tremolo pick it instead...

your not realy meant to hold this note but i think it's better if you do
