No Picture Hasan n00b!	#1 by Hasan Salameh at Apr 26, 2006 at 7:24 PM EST
	This tab is wrong Becuz in the video he used a 5-string

Fontaine n00b!	#2 by Fontaine at May 4, 2006 at 12:56 PM EST
	does it sound good with 4 string tho?

No Picture Florian n00b!	#3 by Florian Grad at Jun 7, 2006 at 4:43 AM EST
	he used in the video a 5-string thats right, but in snl-live show he used just a 4-string. and i think it sounds really good when you play it after this tabs. sorry i´m not so good in english

Mike n00b!	#4 by Mike Manning at Jul 8, 2006 at 8:24 PM EST
	i dont know the 1st courus sounds wrong to me maby be how my amps set

In Memory: Syd Lead Player	#5 by In Memory: Syd Barrett 1946-2006 at Jul 14, 2006 at 10:33 AM EST
	Ya he uses a 5-string in the video, but does he ever play anything on the b string? i dont think so. I have a 5-string and i find that most of the stuff i play i could get away with easily on a 4-string.

No Picture Jesse n00b!	#6 by Jesse at Jul 14, 2006 at 10:11 PM EST
	in the first chorus it isnt hammering during the 4h6p4h6p4 part its sliding but other then that looks pretty good

Professional	#7 by danny at Jul 15, 2006 at 3:42 AM EST
	jesse is right about that sliding thing but overall a pretty good tab. i dont ever see or hear him using B-string in the song, i think the 5-string is just for show. plus i have seen the song live on dvd and he is using a four-string. plus my friend has a bass book which has this song in it and the book says its played on a four-string. good job

	A couple of mistakes. 1. There is no bass in the second verse. However, there is a E-0-0-0-0-0* part in the little post-verse thing. 2. What you have labeled as the chorus is actually the pre-chorus. 3. Your chorus (Which you have labeled interlude) is incorrect; it lacks some notes, has some wrong notes, and the variations are either missing or wrong in some parts. 4. In the last time of the outro, he plays a different tonality and a few different notes than the rest..and the last note at the end is not a 5/7 it is a 14 chord on the G and D strings. 14 Hope that helps :)
