most of these are at least semi-arficial harmonics

Play Fig 2 twice for the first "lie cheat and steal"s then

these last four D's are on the quarter notes
and are heavily palm muted.

let the last D feed back until "Lie"

This next part will be difficult to write strictly in TAB because
of the odd rhythms I hope you can hear what I can't notate.

*This guitar continues to feed back on D while another guitar plays
Fig 3. This guitar plays Fill 1 over Fig 3 four times. Fig 3 btw, is
played with the first ending all times.

These are also mostly artificial harmonics.
There are several measures of feedback and noises, pick-scrapes etc.

the guitar playing Fill 2 feeds back durring the first run-through of
fig 3. after Fill 2 just make some noise or as the guitar mags say "ad
lib" :)

btw, BR is Bend and Release and P is pull-off.

these are all artifical harmonics. this is played twice. the above may
be incorrect... i originally thought it was natural harmonics, but after
listening to the live tracks on the singles, i'm positive about the
artifical harms. BUT, i'm not sure of the second note in each bar. (i
guess that means, "revision to come soon")
