Tempo markers - = BPM(8/16=s8/s16), where s8 = swing 8ths, s16 =
swing 16ths
Gtr one is two distorted guitars, panned left and right, arranged for one guitar.
It's still totally accurate, because one guitar merely plays chords while the other
plays fills (harmonics etc) so you don't miss out on anything.
The harmonic fills in the verse are played in a very percussive manner, and get
progressively more so throughout the song. I've tried to notate it, but listen to
the record to get the right feel. Lastly, the harmonic lick in measures 38 and 39,
is basically just Ty percussively attacking the strings while sliding up and down
the neck to find the harmonic nodes. Have fun!
