Riff A (3x)

Then 2nd verse (sim. to first)
Sky dive naked from an aeroplane
Or a lady with a body from outer space
My heart, my heart, kickstart my heart
Say I've got trouble in my eyes
I'm just lookin for another good time
My heart, my heart, kickstart my heart

a wah wah pedal, but it'll sound different.

Key:
b = bend
h = hammer on
~ = vibrato
p = pull off
.25 = quarter step bend
.5 = half step bend
1 = whole step bend
7p/5p3 = pick once
w = wammy bar
___ = hold bend
() = bring bent note back normal
\ = slide down
/ = slide up

That's all the solos. Pretty advanced.
Please comment and rate it.
