Tool
Schism
Lateralus

There are alot of tabs out there for this song but none of them
that I have seen are quite right. Also they are sloppy and hard
to read. Here it is straightforward.

During this part a wah is used. Make the sound by sliding/hammering 
very hard
with your left hand, sweeping your volume knob from low to high 
with your right
hand, and pressing your wah forward with your foot.
