	Put simply, this is a cool song, and is technically quite
challenging.  This tab contains nearly all the riffs from the song
minus the lead bits, and one or two transitions.  All in all I 
think this is a pretty accurate translation.  Play away!!

That's the gist of it folks...quite the song, I really like this tune (even though I can't
play it very well!).  Anyway, enjoy the tab, and if you figure out any of those lead bits,
give me a shout...
