comments, etc [address removed]

(oh im so proud)

the chords are (just like the other tab)

Am, E, Em, F x2
F, C, E

h=hammer  p=pull off /=slide

intro 

e------------------------------------------ 3X 
B------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------
D--------2h3p2--0--------------------------
A----0--------------3--0----0-1--0-1--0-0--
E------------------------------------------

the main riff is quite simmilar to the intro but it has one little difference.
at some point in stead of the "-0-1--0-1--0-0-" its kind of like "-x-x-1--x-x-1--x-x-0" 
and then its back to the main riff again..

and during the "she runs from..." part its some sort of weird slide noise i play it like 
this

B---2/12-- 2X (or so)
G---3/13-- 		(im not really sure how long you should slide up.. give it a try..

and when thom sings "pearly" play like this

e---------------------------------------------------------------
B--13-----13-----13-----13-----13-----13-----13-----13----------
G-----14-----14-----14-----14-----14-----14-----14-----14-------
D---------------------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------

and then

e---------------------------------------------------------------
B-------12-----12-----12-----12-----12-----12-----12-----12-----
G--(14)----13-----13-----13-----13-----13-----13-----13-----13--
D---------------------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------

and then its of the the "Daddy hurts me part" then its like this

guitar 1
Am            C              E
